Load data on .223

[woodstock]

I've had good results with a variety of powders for. 55 gr, Blc2 and cfe223 come to mind. H335 was good too. Sorry no experience with 60 gr

My accuracy load in my 18 inch Wilson arms is a 60 grain Hornady soft point loaded with Tac powder to 556 specs.

Varget has always worked very well for me, but I have never loaded any amax only the 68 hpbt. Other than that Sierras and noslers.

But varget is also extremely market sensitive

16" M&P 15 shoots 65 grain SGKs into a dime using H335 if I do my part.

20" Colt HBAR shoots that same load well and shoots incredibly accurate with RL15 under a hornady 75 gr BTHP.

Those 75 grain AMAX may be a bit long for an AR I think.

I also suggest varget. The 75gr will especially perform well.

The 75 amax will just barely clear the magazine. You have to check each one for length very carefully

I shoot a NM AR with 20" Krieger in NRA XTC and Mid-Range Matches.
Here are my goto loads:
200yrds: 53gr Hornady Match, 23.0gr H4895 or 24.0gr IMR4895
300yrds: 77gr SMK, 22.0gr H4895 or 23.0gr IMR4895
600yrds: 80gr SMK, 23.0gr H4895 or 24.0gr IMR4895
I have cleaned every stage at one time or another so I know the ammo and equipment is good.
I usually know when I break a good shoot and it's always a good result and I know when I break a bad shot!
