Gents I wish we could get SWISS up here in the far North like you guys! No one wants to truck this stuff (any BP) so it ends up being very expensive getting here, not unless we can pick it up personally from a major sporting store some 2000+km's away! So we get what we can & do the best with what we got.
Has anyone tried WANO 2P in relation to the normal 2F? Any more punch/velocity or just cleaner burning?
Any help with my bullet alloy query or compression of BP will be appreciated.

As a further note to my initial query, Graeme Wright mentions on Page 155 (3rd edition) about loosing velocity when he used a drop tube for his BP loads or am I getting my facts wrong about compressing BP?
To get similar duplex loads, wads, lube etc I have to compress my loads a fair bit to fit a 400gn PP pill just off the lands; i do use Hornady brass so maybe it's thicker than Bell or Bertram brass hence less capacity.

Cheers
