I'm loading 223 for a AR, I plan on reloading 55 grain fmj bullets with bl-c(2) powder. I have Lyman's 49th manual and for a 55 grain bullet they use a '55 grain jacketed spt.' And on hodgons website for my powder and a 55 grain bullet they use the following bullets: 55 grain bar tsx fb, 55 grain Spr sp, and a 55 grain sfire. This is a list of commonly used ammunition abbreviations, and what the Ammunition abbreviations mean.
223 Ammo
Gun has a 26' barrel! with 1-9 twist. I expect to start with bullets in the 55-65 grain range.
Anyone actually experienced decrease in accuracy when we push these bullets too fast? We have all heard about this so called 3200FPS limit with bullets made from the 22LR brass I'm but looking for some actual first hand load data.
Think I have read good things about Varget?? maybe like 25 grains or so? Anyone else have any first hand info? I have the 'one book' reloading manual for the 223 rem so I can look up loads all day long but I'm looking for any recamendations, primer choice too if you care to share.
Thanks
