Recommend me powder....


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Iv just been told the cfe 223 is possibly no longer available..

Any suggestions for a powder for 39g .204 , 40g .223, 58g ,75g, 100g .243 and 168g .308.

Obviously 1 powder wont cover everything but even a brand that's going to be around for a long time yet to allow me to work up some loads for each..

Thanks again

I have pulled the following information from the excellent Vihtavuori Reloading Guide:

39g 204 - no listing for 39g but powder for 40gn N133, N140, N530

40g .223 - N120,N130, N133

58g .243 - N135 N140 N550

75g .243 - N135 N140 N150 N550

100g .243 - N150 N540 N550

168g - .308 - N140 N150 N550

I use N140 for .308 with 147grain and 155 grain bullets.

I note you are in Co Durham - I have an excellent RFD contact who can supply reloading consumables at excellent prices, or can when we have free movement.
