What's Wrong with SW Match Rifle Powder?
#6
Harpoon1 Wrote:I've done searches here and on google, neither turned up very much.

I've seen our fearless leader BFT say Bill Alexander told him that A2520 was the best all around, perfect Grendel powder.

The Western Data book shows it as the fastest powder in all the lower Grendel weights. And from what I can find, the Shooters World Match Rifle is ?exactly? the old tried and true A2520 formula!

So what gives, why so little data with it? Is it wildly temperature sensitive? Can't be any worse the CFE223, which is about as close to the same burn rate, without actually being a clone.

Where's the love?

Edited: It?s getting old having the apostrophes and quotation marks replaced with ??? In my posts. What gives, how can I correct this?

SW Match is supposed to be Lovex's attempt at the Varget burn characteristics for the US market. I don't have any experience with it though. SW Tactical is supposed to be a H335 replacement too.

Here's a podcast of Ken Johnson, the importer, discussing it.
