Nice report Shadow!

That load is almost identical to one of my pet loads, although I don't crimp as much.

The Acccurate No. 9 appears to be an older lot. Made in Belgium. The USA made lots are now more like flattened spherical powder, whereas the Belgium-made powders were those micro-spheres.

The bullet looks remarkably close to a Beartooth bullet. The bullet that is second-to-right is the Beartooth. My own cast WFN LBT bullets are the plain base and gas checked bullets to the left and the far right is a Double Tap.
