I've got a question about projectiles and powder throws. I've got some Winchester Power Points, 64 grain .224 diameter. I'm running them in an AR. My reloading manual only lists three powders for this bullet weight, one of which I have. These are:
Accurate 2520
Accurate 2460
Accurate 2230
I have the 2460 and it's okay, I'm not anywhere near max yet and may wind up sticking with this powder.
But while there's not much data out there on the 64 grain PP, there are beaucoup powders and data listed for the 63 grain Sierra bullet.
Is one grain of bullet weight going to make an appreciable difference?
I'm usually not ever near a max load, unless it just proves to be the most accurate which I've found to rarely be the case. Usually near max but almost never max. What think you guys?
