Muggie,
What primer you lighting it with?
CCI 400
I have been using it in my 223 with 40 gr Nosler BT's and have had trouble reaching loading manual velocity with it, accuracy has been acceptable but not as well as some other powders. Perhaps the 40's are a little light to reach the full potential of CFE223, I will try some 50's and see how it does. However it does copper foul less but seems to carbon foul more than other powders.
drover
Yeah, I think it's too slow burning for the 40's. I'm at 29 grains with the 52 which is Max according to the Hodgdon site. In new brass, 29 grains is giving a fill up into the neck when thrown without a drop tube. A little vibration settles it down below the neck/shoulder junction.
