Thread: ADI2217 & H1000

Are they the same powders, and can one be substituted for the other?

Thanks

Yep, just watch for batch variability as you normally would

Ta Stu. I can't get my hands on any 2213sc at the moment, which is what I was really after.

No problem to get some to you

Current Hodgdon (rebranded) Powders made by ADI for Hodgdon.

Some interesting info there Zimmer, thanks for sharing... Here you go @H&K MAN

Thanks for the 2x offers of 2213sc chaps. I bought some 2217 so I will try that. If it doesn't play nicely I will be back to you on the scrounge.

Cheers

So I tried out the ADI 2217 in the 270wsm today. 5 loads starting at 67.5 and increments up to 70.5. 140 grn Nosler BT.
The highest 2 shots in the 100 yard group are 70 & 70.5 gns. 70.5 grn velocity was 3135fps.

I was hoping for close to 3,200fps but am wondering if I should just call it a day at 70.5 grns or push on to the target velocity. There are no pressure signs and the ADI max 70grns. Federal brass.

I tried getting some 2217 on Thursday, but was told that none is available and not sure when it will be. Damnit!

Next adi shipment into NZ is late april . Will be a wait and see to just what actually gets shipped tho.

Oh, cheers for that. I guess the 308 Norma will sit in the cupboard for the roar then.
I will try to source a different powder like 4831 and try it, or use a different gun.

There is H1000 available from at least one wholesaler.... 8lbers

8lbers? Is that in 8 lb lots? Could be a bit pricey for me at that moment. Thanks tho mate

Yep, you probably wouldn't run out in a hurry though
