No experience with BE-86 in 10mm, but I used HP-38 in 9mm, 40S&W, and 45ACP. I switched to AutoComp for SD loads in the 40S&W, because it was the available powder with the best velocity. It might be worth a try in the 10mm, as well.
I was interested at the beginning, but it sounds, more and more, like someone has made up his mind that shooting is not worth the trouble anymore, and simply wants to run up a post count in order to gain access to the BST forum...
Well, I bought 3 pounds by accident. I had been watching for MATCH Rifle for about a year, since I haven't seen H4895 in 4. Graf's advertised a bunch of powder available, and I had a CRS moment and bought the wrong one. My R700 .30/06 hated the Precision Rifle, but my son's Howa1500 .30/06 liked...
I have also noticed PMC shooting half of the group size compared to WWB, in multiple ARs. Never messed with TAC, but have had good results with H4895, CFE223, and Shooters World Precision Rifle in .223
Finally doesn't look like it is completely made of junk and scraps (which it is). Just got done installing a new top. This one is level, flat, and absent of holes from constantly moving presses trying to find an acceptable setup.
Treated myself to a new bench top. This is the first money I have spent on the bench itself, as it was originally built with pallets and scrap lumber. The toolbox was unnecessary after changing jobs, and the refrigerator was a broken one replaced at the shop I was working at, so I didn't feel...
I want one in the pistol, one carried as a reload, and one spare for range ammo or if something happens to one of the primaries. I have more than that for some, but 3 is my minimum comfort level.
I run 150 SSTs out of my .30/06 Remington 700 ADL. I load 150 SP's for my son's Howa 1500, since I had bought a bunch for my Garand. I thought I could save money by switching to the SP's in my Remington 700. Nope. All else being equal, group size doubled at 100.
Great with small stick like IMR3031 and H4895, or ball like CFE223. Thick stick like IMR4350 binds terribly. Small flake like HP-38 leaks if the drum is loose, or gives inconsistent drops if the drum is too tight. I use the Auto Disk for pistol powder, and used scoops and a trickler for thick...
Not that odd, but I have never seen anyone do it quite like this. I have my 4 pet rifle loads set on Lee PPMs. Just spin the plate to the desired load, and go:
I ordered another pound of powder and a brick of primers for 9mm. Thought I overpaid, then I checked loaded ammo prices. Apparently, I did alright. I won't stockpile, I don't have the room to do so. I try to keep at least 2 years of shooting components on hand at all times. Not as much as some...
Another pound of HP-38 and a brick of SPP from Powder Valley. Between my M9 and my Shadow 2, I seem to be enjoying 9mm more than I have for years, so might as well stock up while it is available.
