BL(C)-2 & the 9.3x62
So BL(C)-2) shows some pretty impressive velocity with 270gr bullets in Hogdon manual that I have and I found an old thread where someone said they were going to try it but never posted any results.
Has anyone tried this powder in their 9.3x62? How was it accuracy wise? I've only used it in 223 but with good results.


30+ years experience tells me that perfection hit at .264. Others are adequate but anything before or after is wishful thinking.

I've only tested it in the 308 Win. I got great groups in the winter, not so great in the summer.

BL (c)2 is the most overlooked powder out there, it gets awesome velocity in more than a few cartridges and its accurate. The only complaint Ive heard is it shoots a big ball of flame out that you can see late evening and early mornings...and it does but so what, never bothered me...I used it book max plus a few grs. in my 9.3x62, but don't tell on me!! sofa

The burning rate is perfect, and you can get lot of it into the case. I use it a lot in the .308. nosler lists it's the most accurate powder for 165-grain bullets in the .308. it should transfer over without any problems.
