LOAD OF THE WEEK

.410 3”: Tungsten 18.0 with 300MP

The game-changing physics of 18.0 density tungsten marches on with this interesting .410 3” load. Alliant 300MP is a very slow-burn rate powder which can achieve great things with heavy payloads in the .410. It is a funky powder and must be treated with care. Crimps must be tight and solid. No aging hulls with crummy plastic for this load.  Follow instructions carefully and use a scale.
