Powder choices for 6ppc

[Lkwebb]

Now that I have a rifle coming to me next week , I'm looking for the better powders . As we all know powder availability sucks.
After a good conversation with the owner today and a few pms..he said he was shooting 68 grain bulkets pushed by h322.
The powder I have is down the burn rate from h322...8208 xbr , cfe 223 and a lil ar comp..
I hate to think bout having to pay Gunbroker prices to get me started...

I read it as him saying he was shooting "68 grains WITH h322", not "68 grains OF h322"

Sorry. 68 grain bullets with 27.9 grains of h322

Nothing wrong with 8208 , it’s close, do some research on here for starting loads.

8208, 335, 322, n133, lt32, benchmark, etc will work fine to get you going. Look at a powder burn rate chart and see if what you have available is close to those

If you have H322 on hand, that will shoot good.

You can add LT30 and the old Accurate Arms 2015BR to the list

Although they have not gotten any publicity, based on a tip from a friend, I have tried Xterminator, which is the same powder as AA2230. It has shown excellent accuracy, can produce top velocities, is very easy to throw (ball powder) , and a the pressures I tested it at was clean burning. Years back, a friend who had been spooked by all of the discussion about 133 being so demanding to stay on top of, shot his first teen agg, with it, after I encouraged him to try it.

Yesterday I tried H4895. May try it again.
