You could but I doubt you'd see any real benefit. Maybe in the fouling but that'd be it. In the Hawkeye you'll see a velocity increase. The finer powder burns faster in the short barrel giving you better velocity. It just helps you get more benefit out of the shorter barrel. You shot it over a chrono yet?

Edit: By the way that stainless is pretty. I've got the same stock but mine is blued.
Haven't chronoed it yet, have a cheap o unit that does a pretty fair job but have forgotten to get it out when I'm shooting it. Sure is a blast to shoot. Wish our season was still in, was bow hunting this morning and had a big doe at 10yds. would have been fun to bust her with the Hawkwye
