Can anyone be able to answer the accuracy difference between the two Systems. I don't have a Quickload and the Powley figures seem to be not realistic. Thanks Pyzda | ||

I own an original Powley that I purchased in the early '70s and I've not used it for years. I do believe that the Powley was as good a reloading tool as having a stack of reloading manuals or notes taken by other individuals especially when chronographs were not readily available to the consumer...or when you're using a 23" barrel and the manuals used a 28" barrel for your particular cartridge. I've owned QL since version 3.4 and find that it can be tuned for your particular chronographed results by tweaking the QL information - specifically tuning to the actual capacity of the particular case that I'm using such as a fire formed and FLR case vs a fresh unfired new case and the ability to slightly adjust the burning rate of the powder between different batched such as with RL-15...just to name a few. I've never compared the reloading accuracy between the Powley and QL however. Jim "Life's hard; it's harder if you're stupid" John Wayne | |||

Thanks Jim I've spent about an hour "re-educating" myself on the Powley Computer dowloaded from the Net. As far as I'm concern this tool is a perfect way to the disaster. It shows one window with PSI and the other changing window in CUP pressure units. There is no solid formula relation between the two and a conversion from one to the other. I can now see how I managed to ruin my 220 .460Wea cases after first reload where I could reprime them by hand. Not a surprise if I look at these figures. They were loaded to 64 900 CUP in one window and 86 000 PSI in the other window. Whatever the correct pressure was is now irelevant but the Powley tool has some mayor flaws. Pyzda | |||
