BTW for anybody that?s watching this post. The version I have is the all flattened ball AA#9.  With my dies and the 3 different brands of brass I?ve used 12.1 gr will just barely start to make seating plug rings on the 200gr xtps. Any more than that and rounds would be deformed enough I wouldn?t wanna use the load.  Albeit it seems I?m getting good velocity with the 12.1 loads as opposed to others using more powder. 1200 fps for a 200gr bullet is plenty hot enough for anything I need to do!  Accurate too!

I?ve had multiple lots of the SAME powder and mixed them all to be uniform before using and working up any loads with it.basically creating my own single uniform lot of powder. Now with this powder of obviously different makeup I?m not so sure I?d even do that. Looks like it?s back to square one when these few lbs run out!

I?ve seen others on the forum getting up to 13.0 grs of powder in the case.  I?m maxing out on capacity at just 12.1 gr at a coal of 1.260. However, this gives a 1200 fps mv out of my factory 6? g40.  AA9 seems to be extremely inconsistent from lot to lot I wish I had bought a larger quantity.
