DATA Powder MR 223

[Wayne S]

Anyone remember this powder, it was AA's first selling of powder, probably back in the 80's. I picked up a bunch at an estate sale. I'm wondering what to compare it to as far as burn rate for loading data ???

Call Accurate powder to get load data.
It is nearly the same as AA 2230.

It is now called AA2230 by Accurate Powders.

I loaded several thousand 223s using 2230 data and found the loads to be quite accurate.

Thanks Doc,
AA finally replied to an e mail saying the same thing. I've tried some in an M1A with 311365 and 311299 and it started to show promise , [smilie=w: also found out some are using it to duplicate M-80 ammo for their M-14 / M1A's.

I loaded a lot of that powder in 5.56, and in fact just finished my last jug this past summer. That was good powder, came in Carnation milk jugs. I found it compared very well to H335.
