    Max loads for 62gr SS109 and WC-844 powder

    Does anybody have any load data for 5.56x45 using WC-844 powder and 62gr SS109 bullets?
    I really need to know what is max so I don't load it too hot.
    Thanks!

    I believe 844 is comparable to h335 start low and work up looking for pressure signs you can also find variations lot to lot so you have to rework loads with new canister

    I think I’m at 23.5gr, same bullet and powder. I just used 69gr load data for those bullets and H335 for the powder load data, it seems to be pretty close.

    But as stated, this powder is notorious for lot to lot variations, so rework your load when opening a new jug.
