[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 2374526, member: 29890"] I'm with you, I had a fresh 8lb jug of H4831sc when I got my PRC finished, and a big box of 130 AR hybrids. I started with 50 pcs of Hornady brass, went from 55-60 grns in .5 increments, 4 shot groups, 59.5 was a ragged hole with a SD of 3, although a small sample. I got 100 pcs of Bertram brass, had to drop the charge to 58.8 to duplicate it, 275ish rounds in, and it's still running 3253-3256 avg with a 3-5fps SD, 29" barrel by the way. I've won a steel shoot out to 1100 yrds with it, and took a 8 point whitetail at 687 2 years ago. I think H4831 or 4831sc is an excellent choice for the PRC, until you get to the 147+ bullets, then I'd probably opt for H1000, Retumbo, RL26, or N565. [/QUOTE]
