Any you guys used WC842 Milsurp powder?
Its suppose to be the equilivant of CFE223 for their "green ammo"

Got a bunch of 165gr SSTs for .308 im gonna give it a try in also.

Im getting some WC844 mil surp which runs off h335 from what Ive read. Tell me where to look for the load data and I can copy/paste it for you.

Only bad thing about MIlsurp pulled powder,, you work up a good load with one jug.. move to the next jug and you might blow primers..

but its cheap enough.


Just anywhere. Search for WC842 load data in google or something.
I was told use H322 data, then ive been told to use CFE223 data and subtract 20%..

What happened with the CFE223 I gave you? CFE223 is the same burn rate as Hodgdon's BLC2, any loads you find for BLC2 should work fine also.

I used it up testing 77gr bergers, 77gr Nolser CCs, and 77gr SMKs

Did it work ok, is what I meant. Did any of the powders show good results?

only thing that showed good results was 40Gr varminators and H322..
only 3/4", everything else was 1.125" to 4" at 100yds.. i havent touched the rifle in several weeks. too aggravating.

I havent used H335 nor IMR3031 yet,, its just been too hot to go sweat all day shooting. Gonna wait till it cools off to really worry bout it.

Got some 77Gr loaded with 3031 and h335.. need to test them..
but i did find out that the jugs of WC842 are potent!!
Ive loaded 24gr varget for 75gr bullets.. and by lookin at my reloading books for awhile i decided to start it out with 20gr powder with a 75gr PPU match bullet.. brass was hot
Worked it up to 22gr and started showing swipes, so i backed it down to 21.5 and everything looks good.

now to go test them on critters or paper..
