Anyone have experience with bl-c(2)?

Anyone have any personal experience with bl-c(2) for 223/5.56 loading 55 grain fmjbt? My hornady book shows 24.4 grains 2800 fp/s - 28.1 grains 3300 fp/s max load.

Thanks in advance.

Looking for the good bad and ugly info.

Bump no one?

I have about 300 rounds loaded with it. 55gr FMJ. Just haven't shot any yet. Can't remember how many grains I used. 27.4 sounds familiar.

We can try them out sometime if you want.

I am using 846 surplus powder now, its supposed to be very, very similar to BL-C2. I am using around 25gr with 55 (fmj w/cannelure) and 22.5gr with 75gr OTM. I am getting great accuracy with the 75's! Standard primers on both.

I'm using 27.6 grs behind 55gr Varmageddon pills. Man do they "pop" when they hit things. Powder functions well, meters great...all you could ask for in a powder.

I picked up a pound this evening so we will see!

Likewise, loaded up 100, first time using BLC 2. Powder was easy to work with. Just haven't shot them yet.

Also have read that Vargent is a good powder for 223. That's the next experiment.
