I have not seen any flavor of APP even break into the top 15 spots in all the scores ive seen posted. Not a single one. Black Mag did many many years ago. Probably before BH209 was even around. They took a #5 spot in a Savage ML or MLII. Ive seen other subs manage in the top 10 occasionally but its not that common. Plain old Goex probably had more.
That's perfectly fine GM and I won't argue the point but I am reporting what I experienced and I'm not concerned about what any others use or think. I know what works for me and that's what I'll use. I gave BH209 a fair try twice and it just didn't work for me.
I can say that I'm pretty sure without running thru the chrony that BH209 will give better velocity using equal charges. But I'd rather hit slow than miss fast!
