Thread: 556/223 brass

so dont load the 3 test loads so hot...like ANY change in components you are SUPPOSED TO drop down and work back up..... Ive always thought,well if its slightly smaller case,I will be getting higher pressure/velocity anyway so never bothered to load hotter..
for 20 years my go to load has been 24.5grns of AR2206h behind a 50-55grn projectile....... have a look at the loads fellas are using with heavies and you will ALSO see that same charge weight......strange as it may seem
also if you compare .222 and .223 load data the smaller case will have higher velocity with same powder charge......again strange but true.
