You load 123gr 6.5 Grendel and 77gr 5.56.
You live in an area where ambient temps range from highs of 114 in the summer to lows in the 20's in winter, so temperature stability is very important!
You can only have ONE powder for both rounds to buy in excessive bulk.
What powder do you choose?
From reading around, 8208 would seem to be ideal. Performs well in both calibers and is very stable. Just seems to be an overall great powder, but that said I have no experience with it yet.
I'll be testing some of that tomorrow, and I have a can of cfe 223 to test next week.
I want to find one that works and buy a metric butt-load of it.
Your suggestions and experiences would be greatly valued!
