Best Powder

Post by caliplt »

What is the best powder for Lee 155's? I shot 150 FMJBT with my normal H110 and appreciated dismal results. Should I switch to Lil Gun, or is there something better out there? Thanks!

I like H110/296 the most , less powder, noise and recoil than IMR 4227 and RL7.

Second choice is IMR4227 .
Lil Gun is good but runs hot ( best for squeezing out the most velocity)
Reloader 7 kinda smokey.

They were all accurate for me.

I've ran nothing but H110 since I began with 300 Blackout. I guess I shall stick with it!

Personal Favorite is N110
Much cleaner than H110 and gives me better accuracy as well.

I like 4227 but I'll take what I can find these days. :roll:
