BCR,<p>I've had numerous Savage rifles,in heavy barreled configuration. The 223 I had("The Club"),was LEGENDARY amongst my friends. It simply did things,that COULDN'T be done!<p>My favorite 223 recipes,incorporate H-335 and the various V-Max. Given but a sole offering,I'd shoot nothing but the 50gr V-Max. <p>I'd look for slight land engagement,as a seating depth guide and between 26.5 and 27.5 grs of H-335 in a commercial case. <p>I'd relay the accuracy potential of my Savage,in that chambering,but grown men with much more expensive rifles(myself included) would CRY..............
