Just looking over the powders I’ve used since I started reloading in May of last year. Most are ball powders like LEVERevolution and H335. However one stands out as the most reliable I’ve tried for accuracy and it’s a stick powder. What does shape have to do with properties of the powder? Are stick powders inherently more accurate? Do ball powders generally give higher velocities? If ball powders are just as accurate, why are stick powders still around?
To my knowledge I’ve not used a flake powder, though some of the ball powders are flattened a little to keep them from just rolling around and can therefore look like tiny flake powders.
