Thread: 2 x 223 Deer loads

Interesting to compare 26 to 27 i.e. both good tight groups.

Usually get that, Lower load the work then lighter barrel flick them around then a top tight group that is usually right on pressure...or just over it and in this case its for the kids to shoot so I will stick with the lower load.

I may get better results if I free float the barrel and bed the action.... but the 26 gr load will keep it going until I do

Thats very interesting leathal. Looks like I could get 50/75 fps more from my 20" barrel but not sure its worth the frigging around?

The animals wont notice the extra speed.....

I wouldn't bother either..

my 2208 load was only 2650 but I had not got to pressure so I was going to load more anyway...but I went to 2206H after talking to Kevin who had a 20" 1:9 and got better with 06H (3K in his)
