Lester,
The answer you need is this.
All this about 'into' or 'just off' the lands is hogwash!

I have found quite a few powders that give similar accuracy; H4831sc, RE19, RE22 and RE25. (RE19 gave the slowest velocities in all bullet weights.)
Of all tested, RE25 gave the highest velocity with ...
