Any of you had hot lots of H1000? I've never tried it until a few months back and I've found it to burn much hotter than any data I have shows. Maxing out w/ mild charges according to data, I'm talking low end to mid range charges. Tested it in two rifles w/ the same results. Seems like the data on the bottle differs quite a bit from the data on their site. (For Example on their site their is a 7.5 grain difference for the suggested load for a 175 in 7RM vs. what's printed on the bottle). Any of you experienced the same?, Maybe just a real hot lot.

Reloder, I think maybe you did get a hot lot. I started shooting H1000 out of my .300 Winchester Mag a couple of years ago and have had spot on success with the loads published in their #26 manual. It lists loads slightly hotter than what is on thier current website. When I found the load I liked I bought an 8 lb jug. | |||

Hey Reloader What caliber, loads and bullets were you shooting with the H1000? The only H1000 I have loaded so far has been with the 300 win mag and the 200 gr Accubond. If you have done the same then we can compare notes and see. ____________________________________ There are those who would misteach us that to stick in a rut is consistency - and a virtue, and that to climb out of the rut is inconsistency - and a vice. - Mark Twain | Chinese Proverb: When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others. ___________________________________ | |||

I ran into the same problem with H1000, but I was loading it in 7m/m Rem mag, not 300. The lot I had burned more like 4831 as I was several grains under max when pressure signs appeared. It is interesting to note that these pressure signs appeared long before I reached the expected velocity. I've had trouble with RL 19 & 22 too, but when it's on, it's on. I can't say that about H1000 and haven't used it in years. | |||

Buckshot, I found it to burn alittle like H4831 myself. Woods, I can't remember exactly what the loads were w/o my data in front of me. I do remember that when shooting it in 300WM under 178s I was maxing out around 77 grains a good bit under the 81+ grains I've seen in some manuals. W/ H4831 in the same rifle under the same bullets I can hit 75 grns w/o signs although I prefer 73-74 for the accuracy. In the 7rm I was well under some of the listed loads when shooting 150s and recieved stiff bolt and severely flatten primers. Heck, I was using data more towards the 175s they had listed on the bottle but, I now see the data on the bottle I bought doesn't match their website, not even close on the 7RM. I do believe they must have put out a hot run. Oh well, Probably couldn't hang w/ R22 anyhow Good Luck Reloader | |||

I have used a lot of H1000 in my 300 WN mag. 80grs with 180 gr NBT. All the stuff I used seemed to be consistent. I miss hunting in B.C. | |||
