which one - y-6 - 04-27-2014

Hello to the board. there seems to be more discussion on this forum about Old E powder. So I joined to ask this question on which powder would work best in a 2.1 and a 2.4. I use gg bullets. I am going to order this week and am thinking to get the 1.5.
Thanks Ritchie

Welcome Ritchie, I'ld suggest splitting a case of 2 and 1.5. 2 for the 2.1 and 1.5 for the longer cases.

I shoot the 2ff in my 2.1 and have real good results..but I'm betting that you could get the 1 1/2 to shoot just fine in the 70. I plan to try the 1 1/2 in my 90 if I ever get it paid for so I can actually shoot it..lol
