    Interesting to hear how you go with those reloads.

    I know it's not the question you asked.

    If you want a load recipe, my go to load for 223 re 26.2gr AR2206h / CCI Small rifle primers / Hornady Vmax 40gr -or- 53gn Vmax seated at 5 thou off the lands.


    Obviously the normal caveats around testing the load with caution in your own rifle applies - as this load is close to book max.

    This load is grouping at 1/4 in at 150yds out of my 1:12 twist Tikka T3.

    regards

    Tim
