I plan on using some RL15 I have on hand to load .308 with a 175gr SMK. I want a powder that will give me as full of a case as possible. I don't mind slightly compressed but prefer almost full to full.
Is RL15 the best choice? It seems like Varget leaves more space in the case.
Is there a better choice? A Go-To powder for .308 that I am not thinking about?
The reason I want this is that it's my understanding that a full case of powder burns more consistantly. Is this right or am I full of shit?
I have several different powders on hand that I can try, but want to focus on one or 2 as quickly as I can. It's just too hot here to spend all day figuring this out.
