I'm trying to develop a load for 75gr Amax's in my 223 with 2208.
2208 is the same as Varget which is better suited for heavier bullets in 223 (or 222), I was getting between 2750 and 2850 with 24-25gr of powder, but the bullet is seated way out.
Most folk tend to go with ADI Benchmark 2 (Hodgon Benchmark) or Hodgon H335 for lighter .22 bullets, but according to the Hodgon website Varget/AR2208 gives good velocity out of 55gr bullets too.
