    Either one will work, just be sure to load them in the powder room.

    It's getting too expensive to dry and grind the babies into powder, though.

    After lots of working with these powders for paintball I have found the RCBS chargemaster will meter either of them equally well usually staying within a tenth of a grain, while a products like the Dillon 550 can vary as much as one full grain +/-. Again always remember safety first when reloading for paintball you don't want any light loads or any too hot. I believe that talcum actually has a slightly quicker burn rate, but you get a little more out of baby powder depending with a longer barrel. Of course any custom porting could also effect your muzzle velocity.
