powders
Hi all, Iv'e tried 3 different powders in my 45 rifle and each prints a different group size, all at approximately the same muzzle velocity. If a lead thing comes out of the tube thing,at the same velocity. I assumed they would print the same group size. Perhaps someone could enlighten me.

Re: powders
Welcome to the world of reloading - it really is a black art.
Start changing the lead mix from the same mould and see the difference in the results!
