After reading seafire's post, I started my own experiment.
I found these results out of a minimum spec Match 223 chamber with zero freebore, barrel 26" long
12.0g of Blue dot with a 40g nosler =3000 fps
14.3g of blue dot =3350 fps (safe working max load)
I got very respectable groups at 200 yards with groups sub one inch at 100 yards.
Cleaning frequency would be every 600+ rounds.
WARNING: Blue dot does not meter very well in a REdding BR-30 powder measure and swings of .5g are normal from powder bridiging.
