h4831sc or n560?

[Pete Carrasco]

which is a better powder for a 6.5 prc H4831sc or N560 ? using 156 eol , 143 eldx, 140 vld , mainly 156

With the 156 I would tend to think both of those powders may be a little on the fast side. Not saying it won't work, but I think if I was trying to dial in a load with the 156 I would start with a slightly slower powder H1000, N565 or RL26.

Correct to go with the H1000 first or Retumbo

Called Berger, for the 156 he recommended H4831SC, H1000, RL26, and N570. I have not done any loads with the 156 yet.

This chart shows N560 being slightly slower than H4831SC. Either will work fine, you just wont see top end velocity as you would from powders others have recommended.

I am building a 6.5x284 and Hodgon recomends H4350, h8341, and hV100, H1000 for 142 to 150gr 6.5 PC isn't all that much different. the 160gr leaves out H4350. I just sold 5lbs of H8431sc. Maybe I should have kept it, but a fellow Army vetran needed ot.

I've had great success with 4831sc. H1000 wouldnt group well for me
