TAC, RL15, BLC2, AA2015, AA2520, AA LT30 and AA LT32 powder also works well. IMR4198 works well, as does newer powders like CFE223 and IMR8208XBR. Many of these powders I have listed do not require you to have to "weight" each charge. Just dump from a good powder measure and go. I use a RCBS uni flow and it handles all of these powders with ease. I can charge and load 300 rounds per hour this way and attain sub moa accuracy in my AR15's and bolt action 223 rifles. 748? I've never used...


I have used 748 and it works well with what few heavy bullets (68 grain Hornady's) I load but I seem to get better accuracy from Benchmark. Unfortunately, I have several pounds of 748 but very little Benchmark. I guess I need to play with it some more to see if I can find that sweet spot. 748 does flow well from an RCBS powder measure.
