Accurate 2460 reloading help

[ronin223]

Found a pound bottle of this stuff in my garage.

Never used it. Can you reload 308 or 3006 or 223, all gas guns? Or should I just get rid of it.

"Accurate 2460 is a fast burning, double-base, spherical rifle powder that is a slower derivative of the AA2230 powder. It is suitable for small and medium sized caliber applications but with slightly higher loading densities than AA2230. It provides an additional option for shooters to fine tune and optimize loads and combinations with calibers ranging from the 223 Rem, 308 Win and for light bullets in the 30-06 Springfield. 2460 is within the threshold limit for M14 systems. Made in the USA."

Good for 308 and heavy 223.

This is data provided by Accurate for Accurate 2460. Also there is no data provided or listed for 30-06 for Accurate 2460 from Accurate.

Sorry missed you asked about 223/5.56 as well so here it is. (Edit: added importent info) be extra careful with bullet and powder loads. As I've noticed that most loads over 25.5g seem to be compression loads.
223 Rem

5.56 nato

It also works well in .30-30 Win, in my experience. I shot quite a bit of it in .223 and .30-30 years ago.
