Lt32 for 6ppc?

[Michael Mattone]

Hearing a buzz about LT 32 in a 6ppc, any help?

 

[R.Morehouse]

It's all I use. I find it takes less powder so I just use a 4" drop tube. Either side of 28g will get you there.......Best of luck. I use lot #3 so YMMV.

I'm not as evolved as you all but it is my experience that T-32 is a winner. I'm using it in .22BR (great!) and (6mm BR it works!) .222 and .223- get outa the way, this is the shit! I started on this avinue with 322 but T-32 is a thousand times better.
Dusty Stevens uses it so wake up and smell the roses! This guy WINS. He alternates between VV133 and T-32

Hey man t32 isnt the same as lt32 but they both win!!

I'm using 28.4 gn of LT-32 and it does well, also thinking of trying LT-30 for the 6PPC and the 30BR, any thoughts.

Mine is LT Dusty, i've done that before maybe because I kind of came late to the party and have never used T-32. I have read about it though. I did'nt get out of USMC till '1978 and I was very busy in the '80s.

I like LT 30 better shoots small and doesn't a drop tube and you only need light neck tension and the shoot jumped ...... jim

What type loads were you shooting in your 6PPC with LT30? What action and barrel? Were you jammed or jumping? I need something else to play with this winter!!! ;-)

A Barts 68 gr. bt. and a 27+ gr LT 30 and fed GM and .001 neck tension and jumped a little....Bat B and Lederer barrel in a Terry Leonard stock and March scope....... jim

LT32 has not worked well for PPC for me. It has too many pressure swings for our hot climate. I tried LT30 in 30BR and that did not work for me either. I'd recommend N133, H322, or Benchmark for the 6PPC and H4198 for the 30BR. And good luck finding t32 powder.

Funny you say this but I see Hall of Fame shooters running LT 30 in a PPC...... jim

My 6PPC does best with IMR 8208, LT32 works well - but 8208 works better. My .22 PPC works best with LT30 & light bullets as does my .223. When I had a 30 BR it did best with LT30 also. Just my experience.

Thanks!

28.5 LT was max for my 6ppc. Too hot and got hard bolt lift and ejector mark.

That is for sure! I have like 12 pounds left and I won't use it unless it is a "top priority-powder worthy" situation. (ha). I bought many jugs of the first lot of LT32 to use when the T ran out - I never imagined that would take so long. In the meantime, I've shot the heck out of the LT-32 in my .223's and .20 Practical. Nothing better for me.

I have tried about every thing known, and I still stick with 133.
Except at Phoenix, where the humidity is just non existent. You can’t get enough 133 in the case to find the top load window. A while back I scored three 8lb jugs of the Israel 2015BR, and it shoots great out there.
It’s about a full grain faster than 133.
