Description
RIFLE POWDER
This propellant has a burn rate and temperature sensitivity very similar to Hodgdon® VARGET. These characteristics and propellant density closely track
with the same characteristics of VARGET.
However, our testing revealed that velocity standard deviation at both ambient and extreme temperatures out-performed that of VARGET. Those in the longrange
game demand low velocity standard deviation, especially when they’re chasing group sizes beyond 1,000 yards. Precision’s ignition characteristics, which contribute to low velocity standard deviation, should benefit those seeking superior accuracy.
In our tests from both a 6.5 Creedmoor and a .308 Winchester, Precision outperformed Varget in accuracy.
Despite Precision being an extruded propellant, we have found good flow characteristics through a volumetric powder dump. The grain is narrow, and cut short. While some reloaders insist on weighing each powder charge, we did not find that extra time necessary when loading for accuracy with this propellant.
