I've noticed you'll get a touch more fps with a little less powder in 6.8 Western and 300 PRC. With that said, VihtaVuori powders were equally as fast and more accurate in both my 6.8's. Still testing the 300 PRC.

I'm confused? You get better muzzle velocity with less powder but vit powders are equal? So you don't get more velocity out of grand?

The initial comparison was btw Magnum and Grand. But in my testing for my two rifles, N565 and N570 were faster and produced better groups than Grand.

No, I haven't posted anything in regards to 300prc. Everything I've tested so far has been with Hammer copper mono's (182 & 196). I just got some Hornady 190 CX and Barnes 190 LRX this week that I want to test before I pick the one I'm going to use going forward. I can PM you what data I have if you'd like.
