My math skills may be abysmal, but the data I posted is good I promise.

Good to know. Just started load development on a new one I traded for. It shot the Fiocchi 50gr vmax factory stuff into abysmal 2” groups that’s always been accurate for me. Loading formed brass in the morning and heading back to the range.

I formed cases with 28 grains of tac and 40 grain NBTs. It shot those around 1" That thing stacks 77 tmk in formed rem cases with 27.5 grains of lever. CCI 450s What did you load up to try?

No lever, wound up with Varget. 24.8gr gave me .65 groups with the 77TMK and CCI 400’s. Need to pick up some lever. 25gr and a 62gr tsx gave me .75” groups. Bright note, it was 20deg so didn’t have to wait long for the barrel to cool between groups! That action is slick as glass, nicest newer 700 action I’ve owned. Switched out the trigger for a triggertech primary, Trijicon accupoint 3-9x, mil dot in DD’s. Really liking it. You need to grab that Leupold with M1’s that I owe you.

Fireformed 100 pics of R-P brass over the last few weeks, working with other stuff and let the .223 AI get stuffed in the corner. Tried ‘15, Varget and Lever again with the 77gr TMK’s. Obviously not stepping on it yet with the 15 or Varget loads, but seeing acceptable accuracy with all 3, and at these charges , same POI within reason. Need to chrono these 3 to get a baseline of where I’m at and likely bump charges. With the Fiocchi brass I was getting pressure signs way early with lever, but no signs now. Switched to Rem 7 1/2’s from CCI 400’s, and and 2 misfires out of 50 rds. Hard hit on the primer too.

Hornady 68 gr hpbt, stumbled across this load a few years ago and stopped looking in my .233ai. I use Redding when I neck size only and Whidden dies when I full length.

Redding here. Settled on ‘15 with 77 TMK’s. Been more consistent for me than Lever. Need to keep working up, I haven’t really pushed it too hard, pretty much SAAMI book max.

Thanks for the feedback.
Just curious if the 223 Redding competition seater with its sliding bullet sleeve would also work on the Ackley?
