[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 804817, member: 9215"] None of us can tell you what factory ammo is, nor could you purchase their powder if we could. First thing you need is to buy a reloading manual, it will list many powders and bullet weights for most any cartridge you're likely to load for. Pick a bullet you want to try first and check the manual for the powder that gets the highest velocity for that weight and start there. It will probably take a good bit of experimenting to get the accuracy you seek. As a noob you will be well served with a Lyman, Hornady, Lee or Sierra loading manual, they all have good loading data and excellant beginner instructions too. (Many guys will strongly suggest multipule manuals but that's because they love to read lots of manuals; one good book is plenty for anyone starting out.) [/QUOTE]
