15.4 grains.  :o

Must be a slow burning powder?

Yes this puts it around AA#9 but is more powder charge for velocity.  Still studying this powder, may be something "NEW"! ???

We have yellow again! Could this be a flash suppressant? In the other case where it is primer/moisture related it is all over and not specks.

Not sure why is there...we have never gotten a definitive answer to the yellow specks we are seeing.  Is it being blended into the powders on purpose?  Is it a type of suppresant?  ???

Maybe your brother could shed some light from behind the curtain of ATK... ;)

Wow.....interesting. I did pick up 40rds of these to shoot through the chrono this weekend can't wait to see how they perform in my 29sf with StormLake barrel.

Popapi,   welcome to 10mmFirearms.com.    Glad to have you.

What was your findings? That's if you got out to do some shooting.

If it's posted somewhere else I didn't find it.
