Hodgdon BLC2 Smokeless Gun Powder

Looking for Hodgdon BLC2 powder? BL-C(2) is a spherical powder that began as a military powder used in the 7.62 NATO, commonly known today as the .308 Winchester. When it was first introduced to civilian handloaders, benchrest shooters and other target shooters made it an instant success — a reputation it’s held onto ever since.

Hodgdon BLC2 powder works extremely well across a genuinely wide range of cartridges, including .204 Ruger, .223 Remington, .17 Remington, .22 PPC, and of course .308 Winchester, among many others — a real advantage for reloaders who load multiple calibers and want fewer powders to stock. As always, never exceed the loads displayed in your reloading guide, never mix two powders regardless of type or brand, and never substitute smokeless powder for black powder or a black powder substitute. For the full official load data, see Hodgdon’s reloading data center.

If you’re loading for precision benchrest or varmint applications specifically, our Hodgdon Benchmark or Varget may also be worth a look.
