Moly vs no moly powder charge

I just received some 35g Berger's moly'd . I was wondering if anyone has done a side by side comparison with the same bullet un-moly'd , to know how much more powder is used to reach the same speed / accuracy nodes.

Jeff,

I was thinking of using moly coated bullets, but after talking to a few guys that used them, I changed my mind. They claimed that the performance was excellent but at the expense of having a heck of a time getting rid of the the buildup at the throat. Just something you might want to research, yourself.

WS2/Danzac is better than Moly. Does not build up in the bore, but can attract moisture.

HBN - hexagonal boron nitride does not build up in the bore and does not attract moisture.


Either of the above can be easily applied at home with your tumbler.
