6.8 SPC Reload Recommendations? - 09/12/15 05:07 PM
I am gearing up to reload 6.8 SPC and could use some advice on components and powder. My AR has an 18" ARP barrel with 11.25 twist hybrid 5R rifling and will be used for general purpose (70-30 hunting and target).
- brass can be had with either small or large Rifle Primers, which is suggested? Which is considered "standard" in factory loadings?
- rifle shoots factory Hornady 120 gr SST loads very well so will load some of these and thinking also of trying Nosler 110 gr Accubond, 115 SMK and 115 Nosler Target, are there any clear winners here or other suggestions?
- Powder, I want a temperature stable powder that runs clean with the highest accuracy, what are the top powders used/suggested?
Looking to get a head start and narrow down options, thanks!
