I guess the new test loads will have to wait until I make it to Sportsman's.


OUCH! Do you have any CFE-223? If so, try 25.5gr of it. My RRA AR likes the Barnes 62gr TSX with this load for a little over 3,000fps. Max load for the 62gr TSX is 27.0gr of CFE-223.

Ed,

I've tried a long list of powder with them. CFE-223, IMR-8208, H335, Benchmark, Tac, LT-32, H-322, W748, and N133, and IMR-4895.

So far, only thing that shot close to an inch was IMR-4895. Considering the similarities between 4895 and Varget, I thought it might be worth trying.


However, I do have some 69gr NCC begging to have some CFE-223 lit behind them. Might be fun to see how that works out?

You didn't use logic or reason to get into this opinion, I cannot use logic or reason to get you out of it.
