Well, I finally took the plunge and brought home a lovely Rock River Mid-Length AR-15 w/ 16" stainless steel barrel (1:8). Naturally, I will need to start loading for this ammo eater.
Want to develop a couple of different loads for it:
(1) a general blasting/plinking load (read: low(er) cost) and
(2) a super accurate varmint exploding load.
Ive started doing some reading on THR and Handloads.com and it seems that most people are using IMR 4895, 3031, H335, W748, AA2015, Varget and RL15.
Which of these powders are ball powders? Since I'll be loading large quantities, I'd like to stick to something thatll meter well in my Lee Auto-disk.
What other components and dies do you guys prefer?
