I love it when you quote a page to make a point and leave out the tidbits like.
Hodgdon 777 This powder was designed for hunters trying to get more volume. It is really hot, 15% hotter than Goex 2F, for example. It has all of the advantages of APP above. APP 2FG 34gr 580fps High 508fps Low ES 72 but their math says 82 SD 30 Triple7 2FG 34gr 898fps High 829fps Low ES 69 SD 27 So its MUCH slower and worse ES/SD then Triple7 yet Triple7 has all the advantages of the APP...according to the link YOU quoted. :cool: |
I didn't leave out anything since I provided the link to the page where you read it.
And I provided a reference link to the rest of Gander's photos which you didn't post a link to where you found them. There's plenty of other velocity data about APP. Check put some velocity and accuracy results that Curtrich did using a Ransom rest and Oehler chronograph. For some reason, some of the loads with the lowest ES had the worst accuracy compared to the higher ES loads that had the best accuracy, Perhaps heat, fouling or the APP pressure curve is involved. --->>> http://www.curtrich.com/0714APPPremiumGradeTest.html |
Jedediah Starr and Jade-Inc.org also has APP in stock.

APP has started making .50 round pellets instead of only the square sticks.
LG Outdoors is selling them. --->>> https://www.lg-outdoors.com/Product/...s/5737725?fs=1 |

The American Pioneer .50 pellets are also sold by Graf's under the Shooters World label as The Hunter Pellets.

My problem with APP powder was that it had inconsistent grain size. The larger grains would have vastly lower velocity than loads that happen to have the powdery smaller grains. I tried a whole can of the stuff in both my 50 cal and in two shotguns. Both types of guns displayed terrible consistencies. It's bad enough when a 50 cal goes 8 inches or more wild...but when a shotgun has noticeable variations, that's ridiculous.
