Anyone using Accurate 2015 powder for 5.56? If so, what bullet weights, and what are it's advantages. I have a chance to pick some up cheap, but don't know anything about it.

Must not be popular.

Shot 1 lb of it. Didn't work up any loads. I think it chrono'd WAY slower than the published data. I'd buy it if I found a good deal on it.

I've got other powders, but just didn't want to buy something that's pretty much a dud. If I bought some, it would be several pounds.
Of course, any powder that functions well would be OK for practice and drills.

Exactly. I'd grab it. It's extruded, fine kernal. It meters like H322 and XBR. I bought it in the last drought... I made a list of any powders that would work in .223 other than Reloader.
I think I just used it to sling FMJs.

I use it for my Mini 14 loads. 24.0 with 55 grain soft points and 24.2 with 55 grain V-max's. If it's accurate in a skinny barrel Mini it can be accurate in anything.
