It's said that grade for grade, the newer paper is slightly more contrasty.

So maybe you need to print 1/2 to 1 full f-stop lower than you usually would, with the new MGV, Vincent?

I for one (think I) like a tiny bit of punch in my prints, so after a bit more use, I will see.

(At the moment) I have some Kentmere RC MG, Ilford FB MG Matt and some Art 300 paper to fall back on if I find it the same as you Vincent.

P.S. Well done for the measuring John.
