Ultimate Pistol 8#- Pick-up Only

Description

8# Canister
Pick-up Only. No shipping available.
This pistol propellant has no reloading powder exact equivalent. It is faster in burn rate than
Accurate® No.5, and slower in burn rate than Accurate® No.2. It is comparable in burn rate to
CFE Pistol and Auto Comp, but it has superior consistency in charge weight drops through a
volumetric charger. This fact makes Ultimate Pistol a logical choice for competitive shooters,
where consistent velocities through a compensated pistol are required to win.

From a competition standpoint, the burn rate modifier of Ultimate Pistol is
incorporated within the propellant grain, and will provide more reliable ignition
and consistency in velocity, than other propellants of this burn rate. Its flash
suppressant prevents blinding fireballs in low-light conditions, aiding to shooters
comfort and rapid re-acquisition of sight picture and target.
Each lot of Ultimate Pistol is designed, tested, and certified to work with BOTH
lead-free and standard lead styphnate primers. Lead-free primers are notoriously
poor at igniting even standard propellants. Thus, this propellant has been
designed to ignite even under the most trying of combinations. This
stringent requirement ensures that loaders will benefit from assurances of
reliable ignition.
It is perhaps the most versatile of all pistol propellants across the .380 Auto,
9mm Luger, .40 Smith and Wesson, .38 Special, 38 Super, and .45 Automatic
calibers.
The gas generation rate of this propellant should enable 9mm Luger, .380
Automatic, .45 Auto, .38 Super, and .40 S&W loaders to reach “self defense”
velocities, while maintaining reasonable pressure levels. Thus we call this one
propellant “Ultimate”, for its ability to meet the needs of both light loads, and
“full-up” SAAMI-spec self-defense ammunition.
The density of Ultimate Pistol is approximately 0.92 grams/cc. It contains a level
of flash suppressant, which aids in visual comfort to the shooter. It’s spherical
geometry assures highly consistent powder drops, when making rounds on a
progressive loader.
