View Full Version : Powder recommendations?
I have reloaded pistol ammo for years but am now going into .223. Having developed pet loads for my pistol cartridge long since, I have not needed to buy newer manuals. What do you guys think that I should consider for powder in a .223 load?

I've used both H335 and varget with good results.
Mule
TAC, H335, AA2230, especially if loading progressively.

I also have been searching for the "One Powder" that stands out above all the rest, but what I've found is an excellent variety of powders to choose from. :rolleyes:
The popular VARGET, A2230, H335, W748, and TAC powders are so highly tooted by reloaders that I'll have to give each a fair trial and make my own assessment. Wish there was an easier way....:confused: Sorta..:D:D

Buy the cheapest; stack it deepest.

For my 69gr. SMK loads, I like Varget. It meters just fine. My SD's on a XL650 press are less than 7. .25 MOA out of my 18" AR
For my 55gr. FMJ-BT plinker loads, I like H335 or W748. Both meter ridiculously well. Set the powder measure and forget it. .50 MOA out of the same.
