F T/R Competition Poll: brass bullets and powder

[ghostwriter247]

Seeing all the what this or that questions I was reading the what the pros use thread and figured this would certainly help out beginners. Right now I'd like to limit to ftr and if it gets good response ill do one for open classes as well. If you post up your powder bullet and brass type I will compile the results and graph it.

Oh and caliber 223 or 308 as well
