    Powder choices for 300PRC

    ...... There aren't many. About the only magnum powder I can find in stock locally is Hogdon 50BMG, which like the name suggests, is very slow burning and for the biggest of cartridges, apparently its the equivalent of ADI2218 but neither feature as an option in any of the loading manuals I've seen. Has anyone tried the above in a 300PRC?

    That's what happens when you sack all your qualifyed experienced staff because the govt said so.
