This is true.
But I had a situation where Rem 6.8SPC would not cycle in my gun.
So I pulled 180 bullets and reworked the rounds with the factory powder. I used Accurate 2200 for the remainder of the cartridges and all was good.
The damned rouge rounds I made were some of the more accurate loads ever in 6.8. But so were the rounds with 2200. the bullets where a cavity back 115 grain factory Rem.
So in this case, getting the factory bullets would be more valuable than the factory powder.
