Tom, Knight rifles are rated to handle 150 grains if loose powder with any projectile of 290 grains and less. Remember that BH is a smokeless
progressive burning powder because of that BH-209 produces
less peak pressure at any one given time than T7 does, although in the overall sceme of things it produces more totaly pressure with projectiles of 260 grains and up than does T7.
What velocity are you guys getting with these charges and this bullet.
Anyone know a way to figure approximate velocities. My chrono is down right now so I can not measure the loads. And I was wanting to play around a bit with a ballistics calculator. So I am just looking for some general information. Thanks, Tom.
This chart might help you some. One thing it was shot at close to 3000 ft so that has some effect on velocities...
This might help also, it is atarget shot with 300 grain XTP's using 110 grains of T7 and BH
