Myself, have had little success with this powder. Appears to show good velocity but accuracy in my remington is average at best. Sticking with 10X and Benchmark!

Not bad!!

One combination I have YET to try......almost out of 32 grain BK's.......need alternative!

Hey guys, has anyone given this combination a try out there? My remington likes the powder and the bullet very much so I figured I would give it a shot. Starting with 32 grain data would likely be the best bet and watch for pressure signs from there. This remy of mine does not appear to ever show an...

Being the curious sort by nature and despite the fact I said I would not assemble any loads with this powder for my 204......well.....it is done! Assembled some loads using the 39 gr BK and the 40 gr berger just for giggles! The results out of the fireball left me less than impressed maybe the 204 w...

Same for me....mine were all factory load brass and after only a few firings the primer pockets are all bored out. Assembled a last batch of ammo for summer shooting and when the get fired....to the trash they go! Have lots of WW and RP in the house!

Had a nice shot at a LARGE Jack rabbit on saturday.....about 300 yards....was kind of trotting along, thought about taking a shot on the run but I kinda figured he would stop and sure enough. One 25 grain Vmax to the chest and the deed was done! Love this gun!

I own both and shoot both OFTEN and to me the 204 is my long range rig and the little 17 is my short range varmint/plinking gun. It is stupid cheap to reload for, has no recoil, you see hits and generally is a lot of fun to shoot! I have made clean kills out to just past 400 yards on calm days with ...

http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd6/FireBallGuy/SummerLoad-1.jpg Made up a batch of ammo to shoot the summer away. The load is 26.0 grains of 10X, 32 grain sierra BK, hornady case and lit up by a 205M primer. Took 4 shots to get where I wanted and made the last 2 a group. Just a tick over .300&q...

Agreed! My SPS in 17 fireball out of the box would allow 20 accurate shots then it was DONE!! Barrel fouled horribly! I firmly believe it was lapped and returned to me and now the guns shoots great! Still fouls more than my VSF in 204 but it is very manageable now. Send it back and let the boys at r...

Change of plans.....a friend of mine picked up 3 pounds of the stuff and asked me if I want one and I said YES! Already loaded up a batch with 20 grain Vmax's and 25 grain bergers for the 17 fireball going to give them a go on the weekend. Not sure if I even want to try the stuff in the 204 yet. I h...

Still playing with that bowshot?

Getting mine tomorrow.....first test mule......17 furball! I mean fireball.....LOL!

IMR 8028XBR, sorry was not specific.

Sure would be! I am finding a lot of common ground with other shooters in the 204 with 10X.....25.1 grains with 39 or 40 grainers appears to be a superb load for many guys in here, myself included. Maybe we have finally found the "Wonder Powder".....LOL! Going to get my hands on some of th...
