Are they the Same ?

[Hippy]

With Powder shortage still being a Issue ,do these powders INTERCHANGE 100% with each other:

H-414---W-760
X-Terminator--AA2230
RL-7---AA1680

I have seen stated that they were from several sources BUT

Thanx,

I know that H-414 and W-760 are the same, can't swear to the others...

 

[Zero333]

H414 and 760 are 100% identical

X-terminator and Accurate 2230 are not the same. X-teminator makes a lil more pressure with equal weight.

RL-7 and A-1680 are not the same but equal weight of each produces just about the same pressure. RL-7 fills the case a little more than A-1680.

What caliber are you shooting,that will help with which powder will work the best.

2230 and xterminator are the same powder. I got that info from Western.

Exchanging the data they have been on the market.

X-Terminator--AA2230......Yup same
^^^ Same info I got from western powders.

HTH,

^^^^ What Don said.
I was looking at H414 and W760 loads last night.
Same load book showed different weights of H110 and W296 to achieve same velocity.
See...even same same is not same same.
Make no assumptions. Your life, and maybe others, could depend upon your choice.

My nickels worth.
