Use the Personalized Load Calculator to customize loads to your own specific requirements. Our default view only displays powders/loads that fulfill certain criteria: Max pressure of a load <=90% of Max. Standardized Pressure. Fill Rate (Min FR): >80% and <=98% for rife loads, >60% and <=98% for pistol loads. Min. Propellant Combustion (Min z): >90% for rifle loads , >80% for pistol/revolver loads
Relax this criteria at own risk to also potentially get more powders shown in the load tables.
You can add a specific load / powder from below to your Diary and manage there.
