Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles BL-C(2) in 6.5 Creedmoor?

I picked up a few pounds of BL-C(2) when I couldn't get H335 for my .223 a few years back. I never found BL-C(2) to be very accurate in my .223s, so it is just taking up space on my shelf at this point. Now I am the proud owner of a 6.5 and getting geared up to load it. Question: Hodgdon's web site lists BL-C(2) as a recommended powder for the 6.5. Has anyone actually tried it with 130 gr. projectiles? How did it work out?

Never used it , but I have heard it’s burns dirty

Ball C works well in my .223.

Never tried it in the Creed.

IMO there are better powders for the Creed.

That's pretty fine shooting for a Mini14. My last Mini had the worst vertical stringing you have ever seen. A 20 shot group at 100 yards would be 1.5" wide and 10" tall. I gave up and got an AR-15.

Not your average Mini...

These folks do a good job. I got my work done some years ago before prices went this high. http://www.mini14ranch.com/

Mine has the three point bedding, a trigger job and muzzle brake.
