I have 2 jugs I'm about to start experimenting with. I've read about folks using it for 5.56, 6.5, and .308

Who here uses it? Thoughts? Load info?

I reload 5.56, so I can't/won't comment on the other calibers - I've considered getting a pound of AR-Comp to try out, but the velocities I see in the reloading manuals have always made me shy away. That said, I am not trying to shoot MOA groups and will trade some accuracy for velocity.

I tried it, still have most of a lb left. Didnt find the sweet spot on my loads back then. I was loading mosty 69gr SMK's and it just didnt play well. Varget is my go to for those bullets, and CFE223 for the 55's. Varget is just as good as the CFE223 on the 55's it just doesnt meter as well on my progressive.

I haven't used it personally, but a friend said he got accuracy, but not the speed he wanted with heavies in a .223. It's a extreme series powder, so it's a very temp stable powder. I rarely stray from Hodgdon's extreme line.
