This is a considerable amount more powder than the new stuff? Is it the same powder?
I'm still studying that and am leaning to a different powder similar to Silhouette but slightly slower burn rate.
The other pull-down had irregular cut flakes, This powder is from the other pull-down.

this one is flattened ball with a burn rate like AA#9
Why would they use such a powder?
I also noticed excessive muzzle flash, both from my own experience as well as TNoutdoors videos.

From this one? This is totally different than the garbage round they offer today. The velocity I got from this one is the way it was back in the day. It's a shame all these Companies have watered down the 10mm rounds and now they are paying for it. See Federal trying to offer something decent again now 8)
Oh this is a vintage load? What did you get out of it?
1269 FPS/ 626 LBS
I wish they were still that speed.
I should wrap one up and send it to Winchester with.... What happened??? :P

This one was the same as the other listed in this post, but there was another one we pulled that was different listed here;http://10mm-firearms.com/factory-10mm-ammo-pull-downs/winchester-175gr-silvertip-jhp-pull-down/ (http://10mm-firearms.com/factory-10mm-ammo-pull-downs/winchester-175gr-silvertip-jhp-pull-down/)
So that batch too are indeed the old ones.
Impressive....the charges were the same.
