I called Traditions and asked about shooting BH209 in my Pursuit LT. They said no problem (Great!). I then asked about what the max recommended load, the gentleman said 150 grains. Now, not that I doubt him, but the owners manual says 150 grains of BP or Pyrodex, and 130 of T7; I thought BH209 was measured like T7 and needed to be reduced by 15%.
Is BH209, measured in volume, just like BP and pyrodex, or does it need to be cut down like T7?
