Sure seems mighty funny that BLC-2 is so temp sensitive ,based on Military loading and subsequent use World Wide !?. Be what it may ,if you're not comfortable with it ,try VV powders they're World Class . #7 months back paid $ 216.00 8 lb. BLC-2 , and Four months back paid $232.00 for VV 8 lb. in various High energy #'s .
540 ,550, 555* ,560 , 568 . * 555 is the 6.5 CM cats meow . Just saying You can get BETTER powder for less $'s . Too many people get stuck on particular powders ,without really trying another brand . I used to be that person ,found one stuck with it ,then learned other powders did slightly better and I just had to adjust charge loads to accommodate change .
Target purpose powder selection for AR platform ,cycling grouping . Those were some of the 1 St. rounds out of MY New Build at 165 Yd.
I adjusted the BLC-2 charge and tweaked VV540 slightly and got excellent groupings as well as full function results . Granted those are 120's and I'm just waiting for all this frontal weather crap to pass us ,before doing additional weights and powders . Have everything loaded up and I honestly believe I may see single hole or nearly with those powders I mentioned . I can attest VV is far cleaner burning and dry patching after #20 rounds reveals little .
