Ok boys so here is the deal.
I have an 8 pound jug of Leverevolution and zero published data to load from.
Here is what I need you to do.....
Tell me which bullets this powder is really working well for you
What are your favorite loads, which combinations did it not work out so well with.
Please be specific as possible. Starting loads, max loads, COAL?s etc.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
Chuck

I have not loaded with it yet but do with CFE 223 and they are very close together in burnrate and loads. So close that some have though they are the same powder but the shape is a little different. Like all things though do not mix their data, just work up to it.

I have had good luck with both 123ELD's and 123 SST's and LVR . Started at about 30 gr, working up to about 31.5 with around 31 gr giving the best accuracy, with around 2420fps with 16" barrel and around 2300fps with 12.7" barrel. 2.26 COAL.

Thanks 65!
Hunting pigs next week using the 129ABLR for the first time....
Going to work with your LEVR load the week after next.
It's time for the rest of you Levr shooters to come out of the closet.
What are some of your favorite recipes???!

A5, what were your findings with lvr. I dont plan on trying it just curious if you found faults with it.

Same fault that cfe223, ppv and h335 has down here in Louisiana they are not temp stable. I have worked up some fine loads with them but with the way the temps can swing around here they are more trouble then they are worth.
Moved on to h4895, h322, ar-comp.

I had large groups and pressure signs at 31.0gr of LVR with CCI-450 and 123gr. Nosler Custom Comps. At 29.5gr I'm under an inch at 100 yards for 5 shots. 2460fps from a 20" AR.
Have fun!
