Lots of good info in this thread, and it seems geared towards bolt actions. I'm looking for something a little different if anyone can help me.

I recently picked up a very pristine Remington 7400 in 308, I'd say less than 40 rounds through the gun.

I have 300 military cases headstamped 'wra 67', small based resized, and 3 boxes of Hornady Interlock 150 grain flat based bullets.

I've never reloaded for a semi auto, and have been told you need a faster burning powder for the action to operate properly.

Since I need to purchase powder and primers, I'm looking for suggestions on a powder that will burn clean and is fast enough(?) to reliably cycle the action in military cases, and still give decent velocity.

Does anyone load for a semi with military cases? I'm looking for the right powder, and starting/max loads in military cases. Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
