    Also. Can loads be safely used for different projectiles projectiles of the same weight ?

    What I mean by this is, could i get the Hornday load for the 53gr VMax, and use it as a starting point for a load development for 53 gr Barnes TSX's

    I realise that what comes out of this may or may not be accurate - and can live with that .. but is this a safe approach ??

    I'm sure Varget = ADI 2208

    Spanners had a thread somewhere on here with various powder equivalents.

    So you can use 2209 or H4350 and they both shoot the same?

    Should do. Both are made in Aussie by Thales/ ADI. ADI will be 500g though and Hogdon will be 1lb so better value with ADI! Batch variances will still occur.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
