the packageing for pyrodex that ive seen in the last 10 years has all said "use same loading data as blackpowder" and "grain for grain equivalent for volumetric powder measures."

Okay !!
Once more we are getting measument by Grains, (Weight), confused with Volumetric measures. If you load by volume, there is essentially the same. if you load by grain, there is a difference. Will not go into great detail, but instead I would refer you to the
Lyman Black Powder Handbook and Loading, 2nd. edition, page 65, of Charpter-8. Wish you guys could have done a little more homework and documentation. By the way, the Dixie catalog listing that you might have been refering to, is the difference in grains and not volume.
Be Safe !!!
