I managed to pick up some powder. (IMR4198) and looking at the manufacture site, they don't list a starting load amount. They show a MAX of 11gr.
I want it to cycle in an ar15 (carbine gas system) but never like pushing the max as it just.. sounds more than I need/want.
The question is, does anyone know what to do in this case? I was thinking of taking it down to 9gr, then testing in 1/2 gr steps till it cycles consistently and stabilizes.
I don't want to go TOO low though...
