Viht, Solo 1000, Vectan Prima V and Prima SV.  I was not under the impression that the Vectan ba series was single-base, but I don't actually know. The now discontinued IMR SR series.  Maxam CSB-5 is also supposedly single-base.  Not sure about the other Maxam CSB series.

Are there any other single base powders of comparable burn rates?


IMR 7625

Traditionally, all the IMR powders were single base. That's why I'd like to know a lot more about the 5 new versions.

Others include Solo 1000 (and now discontinued Solo 1250).

Blue, Green, Red, Unequal, and Target are all double based.  Interestingly enough, they are running Target under the "Clays" family.

All the new versions...Red, Green, Blue, Unequal, and Target are double base according to the MSDS. Just like the powders they are 'replacing'.
I had the right to remain silent...

but not the ability.

If I had known how much better being retired is than working I would have done it FIRST.
