Everything is sitting at the bench waiting for a powder drop but I'm still searching for good powder data. I'm using LC brass, sized FMJ pulls from Pat's Reloading and CCI primers. Loads will be shot from an AR50.

I'm starting off with W867 powder but I haven't found any definitive information on how many grains to use with this bullet. I've seen anywhere from 200-250 but that is a wide swing. I guess I'm just used to loading standard calibers with good published data.

If anyone would like to send a pm or email I would appreciate it. Don't want to clutter up the site with trivial questions.

Federal American Eagle and PMC both shoot very well in her. I'm trying to get ready and visit some friends with a 2200 yard range.

I wish you would discuss this in the open forum I just bought a 50 and am getting into reloading Im very interested in powders and starting points.
