What he said.
They are the same powder just different label.
That was from Adi in an email I saw with my own eyes.

It's interesting to see the variation in load data for the different projectiles. How do you know what set to use when he projectile you're going to use (Sierra 55gr Game King) isn't listed. I guess the bottom projectile looks the closest. The Barnes projectile has a much lower max load! Why would that be?

Longer bearing surface or harder projectile (Barnes are solid copper aren't they?).
