Lil Gun shoot different from different lot numbers?

Postby giannid » Sun Dec 24, 2017 10:45 am

So I'm just about out of LIL gun and going to have to purchase more. My question is are you guys having consistent shooting between different lot numbers? I developed a load and found the most accurate to be 39 grains under a 250 FTX for my rifle. I'm just wondering if I should chrono the load before I run out of powder so I can adjust if necessary. I'm going to probably buy the biggest container I can get on my next purchase so i shouldn't have to deal with this if it's an issue for awhile.

I'd chrono to see where your at, then start a couple grains less with your new stuff and go from there.

ive had pretty decent results with it staying reasonably consistent.

if you were working with older lil gun tho (lets say 5-8 years back) you might have a noticeable difference.

there was a significant change that happened a few years back - i'm sure some of the other members can put a better timeline on it than me.
