BL-C(2) Powder

[eddiememphis]

Midsouth has some in stock for $29. Hodgdon shows it working with several of my rifles.

Anyone use this powder?

It goes bang. That's really all I know. WC846 load data.

If it fits the application you need it for BUY IT! . However by now it's probably out of stock.

Just a suggestion. Have a list of powders that fit the caliber / bullet you want to load for. IF any of it becomes available, grab it.
If it was for, say, 9mm. Even it it called for 6 gr powder. That still gives you 1100ish rounds you can produce.

I've used it for .223 loads with good results.

Same as 00tec, I’ve just used the milsurp WC846 powder that states it’s like BL-C(2). It’s just “ok” in my opinion... it goes bang for sure, and meters well since it’s a tiny fine spherical powder, but it’s not something I’d use for match grade loads... for plinking or bulk “throw in a can for a rainy day”, sure.

I show some load data I did when I first started reloading; 24.7gr BL-C(2) under 69gr SMK BTHP. Didn't have a chrono at the time, but notes indicate groups were "acceptable." Not much more info.

I'm pretty sure someone in this thread has been loading them at m855 specs easily.

However, I am not an expert. I just shoot other people's ammo when they let me.

from my load notes, I tried a few powders and in the end decided H335 was best for what I was doing, this is data from maybe 200-300 rounds

I used it quite a bit in the past. I think I've found better powders for just about everything now though. I sort of planned to do some load ladders with it and 55 grain bullets.

Maybe I can work on it after I scratch the .40 S&W and .357 SIG itch I've got going on.
