which powder meters the best.

[mil-dot]

AA2495, H4895, AA 2460, IMR4895, VARGET, IMR 4064, RL-12, RL-15, VIHT N -140, WIN 748.

I have a hornady powder meter with case activated drop. i am going to be loading .308 150grain fmj. which powder would work the best.

out of that bunch I would say Win 748.

The ball powders will do it best - don't know if the AA powders are ball or stick. BLC2 is a good powder for duplicating 7.62x51 NATO loads (sounds like what you are doing).

Try some Win 760. Touch faster than Varget, very accurate, and still a ball powder.

AA 2460 is a good Ball powder and works well in .308 Win.

+1 on W748 to meter the best. It might just work the best too.

Isn't Blc-2 and Win 748 the same powder???????

I had heard that H335 and W748 were the same. Don't know for sure and would not assume.

They are close in burn rate but they aren't the same (like H48954 and IMR4895).

i've been using H322 and have had good luck so far.
