This may be a silly question, but how can powder make such a difference in accuracy? I was just looking at the post about VV powders and how benchrest shooters love it so much. I understand there are different types of powder (flake, ball, stick, etc.) and I could see how different types would burn differently. But what makes one powder a more accurate shooting powder than another? I can understand bullets making a big difference in accuracy, and of course, the bullet weight being matched to the gun's barrel and twist rate. But the powder???
I can handle Greek and Hebrew, but if this is a complicated physics and/or chemistry answer, just say so and I'll leave well enough alone. I'm no where near that point in my shooting (or my science and math). I look for inexpensive and relatively clean stuff. Other than that, for me at least, it's academic - and I've been out of school for 7 years
