Important Things to Know About Powders and Your Caliber and Cartridge Case
You must know that the slower the burn rate powder, the higher the powder load, for a given muzzle velocity in a given barrel length of a given bore diameter, with larger case capacities. Moreover, it is important to remember that the quicker (faster) the burn rate powder, the higher the velocity for a given powder load, and a given bore diameter.

Therefore, you know that the larger the bore, the quicker the powder must be for a given muzzle velocity, and a given powder weight. This is where using V.M.D. (volume measure density) charts come in handy to a reloader.
