Start 25.5 grains AA2200.
Other powders send me a PM.
There is quite a bit of info if you do a search.
Also look in the CBB section.

Thank you!
I am still learning my way around.

Played around with some CFE223 I had laying around today. Ladder from 29.6 - 32.3 grains @ 2.305 COAL. Federal brass (36.5 grains H2O capacity measured). Velocity numbers came from my Labradar.

18" ARP 3R (AR-15)
Low: 2371
High: 2503 @ 32.3 grains. Warm, but still some overhead left. Going to load a ladder from 32 - 33 grains.

There was an absolutely massive node from 30.2 - 31.4 grains, all 5 shots were between 2439 - 2445. Too slow for my liking, but if you need a hyper-accurate load, might be worth a look. Going to give IMR 3031 a shot loading long. Quickload looks promising, if I can get the powder to stack in the case in an orderly manner.
