So, given our current situation with availability of powder, or lack of, I decided to pick up some US 869 from my local Scheels, it’s all they really had in stock. Trying to work up a load for 147 Eldm’s. Anyone ever tried 869 in your 6.5 prc?

I found load data on Hogdons website but was hoping someone had some experience with it.

Also, I know that there are way better powders to use for the PRC but I figured I’d give this one a try until I can get my hands on some h1000

It’s a little slower burn rate then N570, which Berger gave me load date for the 156’s. They said 57.5 start and 64.1 max. I haven’t tested it yet, but hope to in the next couple weeks.
