    The powder used is ADI 2209 so fairly temp stable.

    If it helps my load is
    Lapua .260 Brass
    140gr A-Max
    42gr AR2209
    CCI BR primer

    22" MAB 1:8 barrel
    There are many variables I know but I used 46grs 2209 in my .260AI and only got 2820fps thru a 24" barrel with the A max. For the same charge in RL-17 I get 2920ish with the same projectile.
