    Reloader 15 and AR COMP Accuracy

    Hello Gent's, Any input or real-world experience of how AR-Comp should / does cmpare to RL-15 when running 69 g. Nosler CC's in a 1-8 twist, 18" barrel? Not interested in Varget as I may as well put pop-corn kernels in the PTX measure. Sometimes so bad it closes sized neck with up-stroke force...
