Help with powder choices!

[freezer filler]

I am lookin for powder for 155 grain 30 cal for ar10 and m1a. I have h414, 4064, and h335 to choose from. What do you guys recommend? I am leaning towards the 335 because I can use it for 223 as well and it's ball so it meters better. Please help me decide before it all sells out!

Either the H335 or IMR4064 - H414 is too slow.

 

[Ganderite]

H335 is perfect. Meters perfectly.

Do you know about the reloading data center that Hodgdon has on their web site? Not only would it have answered your question fast but it's got load data for the H335 as well as the 4064. You should bookmark this. It's like having an extra reloading manual.

IMR 8208 XBR if you ever come across it.

The 3 go to powders for M1A's are 3031, 4064 and H4895 according to the M14 bible by Zediker.
If you stay in the range between those powders you will not beat up your op-rod.

335 is between 3031 and 4895 so it should also be good in an M1A? It might not have the same pressure curve though.

I tried cfe223 worked awsome out of a bolt gun though but should work well in semi platform as well ball powder meters great
