Greetings,
I have been pouring through my reloading books and websites reloading data and I am seeking some advice that I am sure I'll get here...
Right now, I am using Ramshot TAC for my .223, .308 and 30-06. I know this is not the ideal powder for .308 and 30-06 but it simplified my life and it worked quite fine for .223 at 100 yards and worked ok for the other 2 calibers.
First question: I shoot a LOT of .223 per month. I put 25.1 grains under Hornady sp 55 grains. Any of you use a powder that will make it more economical to shoot with good results? My plan is to try to find maybe another powder and if I save 2 grains of powder, that means for each 100 rounds I can reload 8-9 more rounds. Maybe I am hunting for a unicorn, let me know.
Second question: What about using Ramshot Biggame or Hunter for the .308 and 30-06? What other powder would you use for both of these calibers that give you good result? I read other threads and it looks like some people prefer to use 2 different powders for those 2 calibers. My goal here is to use a powder better suited than TAC for those 2 calibers. I would prefer one powder for those 2 calibers but maybe your advices will be to use 2 powders and get over it.
Thank you
