If I switch from BLC-2 to BMG-50 is it to slow burning for 8x57 or 7.5x55 cartridge's.What is the difference from slow to fast powder's Performance wise ect..?And why don't re-loading chart's have every powder on them?
...if you cannot find load data for a powder/caliber combination, then you shouldn't consider using it.
Maybe its threads like these that make me appreciate this forum so much. I almost skipped reading through it. Thanks guys.With so many reliable sources containing load data for umpteen powders for just about every cartridge, why would a reloading novice want to experiment with other powders?
A major part of wisdom is being capable of recognizing what you don't know and admitting that you don't know it.
Don ... dangerous territory there.That's a pretty broad statement, and there are certainly cases in which a savvy reloader can do load development without published load data for a particular bullet and powder.

Up to a point, yes, same as faster means slower, up to a point, with plenty of middle ground where powder speeds and velocities over lap.all I have loaded is 8x57,7 Rem Mag and want to start loading the 7.5x55.I just figured slower burn rate means faster bullet speed.
Absolutely nothing wrong with that. 99% of us did just that at first, and many for quite a while, before tackling anything outside the books. One could stick with the books for a lifetime and be just fine.I have only used listed load's
Don ... dangerous territory there.
By the same trail of logic -
Hydrochloric acid will remove printing ink from your hands.
Does that mean its safe? Or should you just use Gojo handcleaner, that's been used for decades, and is intended for that use. ..
