Powder identification

[popic]

Can someone identify this powder, it's in 223 69 gn Blitzking ammo, it shoots .6 in group at 200y ...

almost impossible to identify powder by looks. Especially factory powder as they tend to use blends and their own powders that may not be available to the public.

Nice scale.

Even if the shape and size of the grains look familiar, the coatings and additives could be different which could drastically affect burn rates.

H-4895 is good.

If that's a 0.6" group @200yds... you can give up on duplicating it. Just baby the rifle and buy as much as you can get of the same lot.

It is flattened ball powder. Most likely canister bulk powder that you can't buy. The off the shelf powders will be different.
