Re: Load Catalog: Subsonic, All other Powders and Bullets
Got a great deal on some Nosler 210gr Reduced Drag Factor blems from Shooter's Pro Shop. Thought they might make a great subsonic plinker now that the 208gr A-max is gone.
Here's the initial test set I shot today (82F 82% humidity sea level)
Rifle: PWS Mk 109
Barrel: 9" 1:8"
Action: Piston; Tubb lightweight AR buffer spring, Carbine buffer
Suppressor: AAC SDN-6
Magazine: Lancer 20-rd / Bravo Co. 300BLK
Brass: GCG, 1.358"
Bullet: 210gr Nosler RDF
Primer: CCI 400
Powder: IMR 4227
LOT 1
Charge: 10.3gr
COAL: 2.26"
CBTO: 1.574"
MV: 1140
SD: 11.0
ES: 19
LOT 2
Charge: 10.0gr
COAL: 2.24"
CBTO: 1.555"
MV: 1094
SD: 10.0
ES: 29
LOT 3
Charge: 9.7gr
COAL: 2.22"
CBTO: 1.535"
MV: 1073
SD: 12.3
ES: 28
LOT 4
Charge: 9.4gr
COAL: 2.20"
CBTO: 1.515"
MV: 1056
SD: 7.6
ES: 23
Intent with the decreasing COAL was to keep case fill constant - all charges were slightly compressed. Due to higher variance of bullet length (0.004" SD length compared to 0.001" SD of the base-to-ogive), I used CBTO to set my seating die. Usually I just go with COAL for ballistic tipped bullets.
With the suppressor, all lots showed 100% cycling with BHO.
Next step: test one more dropdown to 9.1gr to see if reliability holds up.
Nice to get good results the first day out with a new projectile!

After working with 1690 I was a bit surprised in the extreme spread with CFE BLK, it seemed like 1 out of each string of 5 was ruining the FPS string for SD and ES.
Also, everything performed as it should, no issues with cycling or lock back.

I expected better from this powder to be honest, it wasn't that clean at all compared to 1680 or CFE BLK, the extreme spreads were not that good either, and the accuracy was poor. Figures as I bought 8lbs of it! I need to load more so we will see where it goes. At least everything performed as it should, no issues with cycling or lock back.

11.0, 997 SD=12.8 ES=34
I really want to like this powder but I don't see it competing with 1690. Hell 12 groups of 5 shots and the lowest Extreme Spread is 21! I might as well run it up to 11.4 and see if a node exists. Stay tuned.....

11.5, 1063 SD=10.8 ES=27
Well that's it for this powder..... I tried to make it work but it does not. All the groups are 5 shot groups and a lot of these groups had fairly tight SD and ES for 4 of the 5 but typically at least one shot was crazy on velocity, and the accuracy was shit in general.

Re: Load Catalog: Subsonic, All other Powders and Bullets
Wierd. My N120 loads are much cleaner and more accurate than 1680. I’ve gotten single digit ES/SD with Lapua 200FMJBT and SMK240, moa accuracy on an old 10” Noveske barrel 1/8 twist barrel. N110 was cleaner but not as reliable nor consistent but I’ll try it again this spring with the R700 and heavy subs. I also use Fed 205M primers.
