I am looking for Loads for a .243 using Accurate Arms 2230 powder. Do not have a Accurate arms reloading manual and nobody in my area has them. I have just picked up a 8lb. can of Acurate Arms C2230. Loads are supposed to be the same for 2230.Will be using a 85 or 87 gr. bullet.
Thanks Leon

Maybe it's at http://www.accuratepowder.com

Garfield,

Have you seen any woodchucks?

The following Accurate powders are suitable for the .243 with the bullet weight you specified:

AA-2015 From 26.5 grains to 32.0 grains
Remington 9-1/2 Primer

AA-2495 From 31.5 grains to 35.0 grains
Remington 9-1/2 Primer

AA-2520 From 28.3 grains to 36.1 grains
Remington 9-1/2 Primer

AA-2700 From 36.9 grains to 41.0 grains
Remington 9-1/2 Primer

AA-3100 From 41.4 grains to 47.0 grains
Remington 9-1/2 Primer

AA-4064 From 34.2 grains to 38.0 grains
Remington 9-1/2 Primer

AA-4350 From 39.6 grains to 44.0 grains
Remington 9-1/2 Primer

AA-2230 is okay for bullets lighter than 70 grains.

Steve is right. The 2230 isn't the best powder for the .243 win.

The only load listed in the Accurate manual for the .243 using the 2230 powder is for the Nosler 55 grain Ballistic Tip, and they show 41.5 grains giving 3807 fps from the 24" test barrel.

If you have a 30-06 (you do have a 30-06 don't you?? ) you may want to try burning up that 2230 behind some 125 grain or 150 grain slugs in that rifle. About 53 grains for the 125's, and about 50 grains for the 150's. Just a thought...

2230 is a good .223 Remington powder...
