The .223 hammer loader will be here today. Now just need to get some powder, bullets, primers, and an electronic scale.
Thinkin fifty of the 53 or 55 TSX should get me on my way to paying for a good part of my investment, since boxed ammo for these aint cheap.
Then a hundred Hornady 55 grain Interlocks look pretty reasonable for an all around load. About $15 for 100.
And then a hundred of either the 63 Sierra SMP or 64 Power Point have been rumored to have reasonable accuracy in a 12 twist barrel.
Either CCI 400 or Tula is what they have at academy in the 100 packs. So I guess I'll give the CCI a try.
They also have the CFE 223 in stock. So I'll pick that up.
Undecided on which electronic scale so far.
30-30 is on the back burner for the moment, as I still have something north of 200 rounds with the nine boxes that came with my last rifle and three or four that I had left over.
Although I wouldn't mind loading some 110's or 125's for plinking.
Might start thinkin about loading for .243 ahead of the 30-30. Would like to try some 105hpbt's for long range target practice maybe.
