The Perfect Powder

Loading subsonics in a 16" AR, pistol gas port. I will be using 180-240gr pills.
I'm on a REALLY tight budget and buying a bunch of diff powders to try just aint an option for me. So, heres what i'm lookn for
*Clean burning
*Accurate
*Not temp sensitive
I've heard folks here say they liked Lil'Gun, H110, and VV110. I live in SC so the temp ranges from about 90-105 in the summer and a good cold day during deer season would be in the 20's. Well, leme have yall, what would you say would be the 'Perfect Powder'???


By the way I been forming brass from LC 5.56 brass, if that makes any diff.

I use N110 for subsonics also. Meets all three requirements you listed.
Use it for supersonics too although I can get a little higher velocity using a double base powder.

In my opinion, H110 is a very dirty burning powder, and I have been told by an avid reloader that it is VERY temperature sensative.

I've reloaded several hundred subsonic rounds with Ramshot Enforcer (it's been HIGHLY recommended to me), but I haven't had an opportunity to test them as of yet.
