<DuaneinND>Hey Todd K. I understand that the 20 Vartarg Turbo likes Benchmark powder.
Just checking to see if you have done any testing or have some data. Talked to a fellow the other day, said that his Turbo just "came alive" in velocity/accuracy with Benchmark and V-max bullets.

<Jordan>Duaine:
Did this guy give you any details or load data? I wonder if Benchmark would also work well in a .20 Var Targ?
Thanks,
Jordan

<Dan C>Hey stranger! No deal on Benchmark for the 20 VT. Just can't get enough in the case to get up to speed. Same with H-322 for that matter.

<Jordan>Thanks Dan!
Good to hear from you. Just bought a canister of H41987 this evening. Hope to shoot this weekend---and perhaps I can do so this time without blowing up a rifle.
Regards,
Jordan

<Todd A Kindler>I have not tested Benchmark in the 20 VTT . It may be a little too slow, however it could prove to be a dandy accuracy powder in it. I still favor Hodgdon 4198 in the 20 VTT. I think the 20 VTT is quite capable of 3900 fps with the Hornady 33 gr. V-Max bullets .

<DuaneinND>Todd, I will get some of the data from the fellow, He says 4000 fps is no sweat with excellent accuracy.
