+# Batch 2017-batch-03 #
+
+6 grains of 29mm using erythritol, intended to be a reloads for the longest 
+GMA 29mm snap-ring case.  Grain length 41mm with 1mm spacing per grain, so 
+we'll make the casting tubes 42mm long.  Delrin coring rods of 5/16" diameter.  
+
+Formula for a batch size of 175g:
+
+* 65% KNO3, 113.75g, taken from the big bucket
+* 35% Erythritol, 61.25g
+
+The multi-cooker was preheated to about 250F with the lid on.  Temp was
+increased during melting to 300F indicated.
+
+These grains were cast on 31 May 2017.
+
+Liner should be cut to 10.00" long for this 6-grain reload.
+
+## Results ##
+
+* Grain 1, 176.1g gross, ?g net
+* Grain 2, 187.8g gross, ?g net
+* Grain 3, 187.6g gross, ?g net
+* Grain 4, 185.8g gross, ?g net
+* Grain 5, 187.9g gross, ?g net
+* Grain 6, 188.3g gross, ?g net
+
+With a 10.00" liner, 14/64" nozzle throat, buna-n o-rings, simulation says
+this makes a 37% H-156, 208 Ns, with about a 1.2 sec burn.
