I'm loading up some .223 loads for my AR15 using 55 grain FMJ's and WC846 powder.
I started at the minimum load listed for BLC2 per the advice on the surplus containers I received and went up half a grain at a time, loading ten cartridges.
Speer lists 25.5 and 27.5 as their min and max respectively. Lee lists 25 and 27, so I decided to go with Lee's more conservative range.
When I got to 27 grains, the powder was up in the cartridge case to the point I'll have a compressed load if I seat bullets in these.
Can anyone advise? I not familiar with this powder and don't want to push it.
Thank you,
Dave
