Thanks a lot!! Should help me out a bit as books these days are waaay to conservative for the 264. I have retumbo, h1000, and rl22. I imagine I'll mess with retumbo/h1000.

 

[wingnut]

You are not going to find many books listing data for an OAL of 3.5" or more. Modeling non-SAMMI specs' is 1 of the major advantages of QL. BTW, RL-33 is on some store shelves.
Good luck.

Has anybody used Vihtavuori N570 is it temp sensitive ?

 

[DrMike]

I have used and do use quite a bit of N570 in a variety of overbore cartridges. I do not shoot in what most would consider "hot" weather. I do not find the powder to be particularly temperature sensitive.
