    223 Australian outback load replica

    Does anyone know what this load is using the 69 smk?

    I have a heap of 2206h powder to use and I assume it will be adi something.

    Ar shoots this load very well.

    Could always just pull a bullet and measure the powder that is in the case, In theory not particularly safe, but in reality shouldn't be a problem. Really should start 10% lower though.
    I would think 2206h is quite likely to be the powder they've used.

    If the load shoots well, just mimicking the OAL and bullet gets you half way there.

    In the ADI handloaders guide 6th edition 2013 where they review the outback range, they say the new benchmark powder 8208, is used in the 223 outback ammunition.

    My T3 loves them too. I’m loading up with BM2 and 2208...haven’t come close to the factory performance yet. Will let you know if/when I do
