223 tracer powder recomendation?

[stang]

Anyone recommend a powder and load that will light tracers in the 223/5.56?

 

[Ganderite]

Use a ball powder like H335 or BLC2

Make sure you shoot beyond 300 yards. Less than 200 yards you won't even see them burning

No problem with 748! Shot over 1000 of them

Where did you manage to find some tracers? I would be highly interested in some just for fun!

Any powder you normally use for 223. Any powder should light them.
I have some 30 cal tracers and you definitely need to be shooting past 100 yards to actually see anything. Best trace is visible between 200 and 800 yards.

Who's got 223 tracer pills?

Someone was selling them on the EE a while ago but the price was redonkulous so I passed on those. They aren't exciting enough for me to spend $5/
