    223 handloads

    Just got into reloading the 223 to start with. Using AR2206H and murom primers with hornady 55grain #2260. Shooting thru my Remington m700. Great results 3/4'' @ 100 with 23.5grains. Less than 1/2'' with 24grains but have noticed the bolt a bit hard to open the last bit of the opening stroke? Should I knock the powder load back a bit to 23.7? I full length size each case and set COAL to under 2.260 and crimp each load. The rifle has a trueflight premium target 1-12 twist if that's any help.
