Powder for .223
Quote from Reloader on January 26, 2017, 3:36 amI have used WW748, but find the H335 meters better and for me shoot better. I know there are other newer cleaner burning powders for the 5.56 and I have a pound on the shelf, but not used it yet. The H335 so far has been the preferred choice at least for me.

Quote from Reloader on October 22, 2017, 5:37 pmFrom what I understand, H335 is the closest to the originally designed powder for the .223, especially in the AR-15 series. I like how it meters, it's very consistent, flows well, and I've never had a misfire in the several hundred rounds I've reloaded. (Hey, I've only had my AR for a few months! )
H335 is also versatile enough you could use it in a .30-06 or in my newest rifle, .204 Ruger.....
