For those reloading..

Just got an email from Natchez Shooting supplies...they have Hodgon BLC-2 powder in 8 lb jugs. This stuff is great for .223 and .308 ammo. Get it while it's good.

Re: For those reloading..

It's all I use for .223. I only have a couple pounds left.. Thanks for the heads up.

Re: For those reloading..

may have to scoop one of those up. Does anyone know how much would be good to start with load wise for a 308?

Is there load data for this powder available in the manuals?

I've been getting the IMR4895 and H4895 lately.

The Hodgdon manual gives the following basic info:

150 gr Nosler BT - 48gr BLC-2, 45.5gr H4895
168gr Sierra BTHP - 47gr BLC-2, 43.5gr H4895
175gr Sierra BTHP - 46 gr BLC-2, 42.7gr H4895

These loads are with Winchester cases & Federal 210M primers.
