I'm just getting started in reloading for rifles, and would like some suggestions on a good powder for .223 Remington pushing a 40 gr. and 55 gr. bullet? | ||

I reload large quantitys of .223 for my AR15. I use WCC844 that is a surplus pull down powder. They compare it to H335 for load data. I use cheap bulk bullets (55 and 62 grain) from Russia and am still getting 2 inch groups at 200 yards. These are not 3-5 shot groups but rather being able to empty a whole mag into a 2 inch head on my metal man target. Don Nelson Sw. PA. | |||

A little bit ago someone posted that they had the best success with RE10. It might have been this one: Reloader 10 Good loading!! Oh yeah, Welcome to AR!!

 I guess I'm lucky but all these powders are working good in my .223 ,12bvss-sThe 2230-c is a hell of a buy for the results you get.  rogerOld age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward. Wisdom comes with age! Sometimes age comes alone.. | |||

I use varget in my .223 with great results. My rifles seem to like it better than anything else I have tried. Although, I have not tried some of the powders listed above. | |||

BL-C2 has worked very well for me. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." Winston Churchill | |||

IMR4895 for high velocity and waiting for the barrel to cool. Blue Dot for constant shooting. | |||
