I bought a Lee Enfield and now I want to load some ammo.
I found brass, I have primers and bullets and I have different powders.
I know every rifle is different so we have that covered. What I'm looking to know is, in general, which powder has been most accurate over all when loading 303 British ammo? I will be loading a 174gr bullet and I'm not asking for load data, only which powder.
I have a bunch of powders and if need be I will look for another. Right now I'm leaning towards BL-C(2) but that's not in stone, especially if the consensus says differently.
Powders available:
LVR
H335
BL-C(2)
Varget
H4895 - IMR4895
H4350 - IMR4350
IMR4198
IMR3031
IMR4064
SR4759
AA5744
Just thinking out loud now, the 303 British looks so much like the 30-30 and 35 Rem I'm tempted to give LVR a try but I can't find any data for that combination.
Like I said, I'm looking for an accurate powder for the 303 British using a 174gr bullet, not load data. Anyone have a powder preference for loading the 303 British, please step up! lol
