    Shooters World match rifle powder.

    Just ordered a pound of S W match powder. Going to try it with Speer 120 gr gold dots and Sierra 120 gr pro hunter and maybe Sierra 130 gr game changers. When powder comes in I will share load experience. First ever post and would like to say I really like reading post here. There is a treasure of info on this site.

          So, do we use 2520 data?

            Try the Shooter's World generated data. It is updated regularly, the last being June of this year. I have been shooting Match Rifle powder in the Grendel for some time and the SW data is pretty much spot on. It is my go to powder for the Grendel in 120 and 123 grain, but SW data goes up to 140 grains. I use a 120 Sierra in my CZ's. Exceedingly accurate.~Riuma

                I haven't noticed any problems and I shoot it year round.~Riuma.

                      Montana. I've shot from +70 to 0F. The colder temps were hunting and I did not see any performance shift. Come to think of it, I shot my varmint CZ at prairiedogs a couple of weeks back and the temps were in the 90's. No surprises: My dope was on.~Riuma.

                          I tried a few loads in my Model 1 6.5 Grendel AR, it prefers 30.3 grains under a 120 grain ELD.

                            What velocity are you getting? I am using Leverevelotion 31.8 grains w/ 120 SMK and it's getting me 2613fps 20" BHW barrel. Group's are excellent and brass/primers are not showing any signs of stress.
