Accurate 4100 vs. Lil' Gun
« on: May 24, 2004, 06:50:58 AM »
Does anyone have any scoop on whether Accurate 4100 = Lil' Gun?

I noticed in my 2002 Accurate manual that they list loads for 4100 in .357 mag and several other handguns. But on their website, they don't. I wonder why?

It looks like it performs similar to Lil'Gun. And it is billed as the ideal powder for .410 shotguns. Coincidence?

Hey thanks.  Thats the first I've even seen that.  Neither Lil'Gun nor 4100 appear in many burn rate listings, let alone both of 'em in the same list.

Since they are rather far apart, I suppose then that they are significantly different.
