    I have the latest lyman cast bullet book, it doesn't have much in the way of "loads that will cycle" for gas operated guns like ARs and SKSs

    I'm also working up a load for the yugo SKS I bought from you, I have the lee 160 grain mold. I'm trying 2400 based on some forums I've read indicating some rifles will cycle with 2400. I have a ton of it and use it for reduced rifle loads in most milsurp cartridges already.

    No real reason for it, but 2400 is a powder that I've never used. Just before the implosion, I was looking for some just to have it, but there was none where I looked (Kevins). I use H4198 about the same way you use 2400.

    Both of my loads cycle that Albanian perfectly. I've never tried them in any other SKS.
