I see that CFE 223 seems to be one of the preferred powders. I did see mention of AR-Comp early in this string and then it just kind of stopped. I was at my local shop and they had 8# of AR-Comp for 125.00 a and I couldn’t resist. I load for an AR-10 in 308 as well as a 15 in 7.62x39 and I can use it for them.
Are most of you using 223 only and is the AR-Comp a reasonable alternate?
Thanks

I use AR Comp in 308 as well as 223. I dont have my recipe book in front of me but I know my load for .308 is 41.7 grains of AR comp with the 168 ELD. Gets 2700 fps out of a 20" barrel and has sds around 10 fps and ES around 15 fps. I hit targets easily out to 800 yards with it. Its a great powder and I routinely find it on sale.
