Hey guys, I am having a hell of a time getting A1680. What is alternative powder that will work with my AR?

I've switched to 5744 because it is so much quieter than 1680.

Mind sharing some loading data?

I'm sorry, I don't have enough experience with 1680 to make a comparison.

Sure, my log is out in the shop so I'll have to get it to you in a bit.

I like Vhit N110 for the 220s and 240s.

Same here. I use H110 for supers and N110 for subs, loaded in Hoser's Brass.

What charge weight do you use?

My notes have 8.3 grains of N110 listed for the 220 SMK.
I haven't tested it yet though.
