    Yep, downloaded Gordons Reloading Tool the other day after reading about it on the Oz F Class Forum . Yet to have a good play with it but from reviews it looks like providing a good (free) alternative to QuickLoad, once developed a bit more.

    Burn rate equivalent charts need to be viewed with caution. Print out several versions and they don't all agree - albeit minor order changes. To be used as a guide only methinks..... Some charts put PP 2000 close to Rel 15. Whilst Alliant themselves list it between Rel 16 and Rel 17.

    Because WW760 is seemingly a slower powder than PP 2000 I would be reluctant to use 760 as the equivalent. Problem with WW powders is there are relatively few different types so powder equivalent charts will show lots of overlap with other brands.

    Has anyone actually contacted Belmont and put the screws on them for some definitive I've data? If they sell the product they should also provide guidance.
