    55grain SGK and AR2206H

    Have a rem m700 in 223, re barrelled with true flight cut to 20 inches. Great accuracy at 24 grains with 2206h and the sierra game king pills, been shooting this load for few years. Chonographed it yesterday and getting average of 2870fps. Anyone an idea what speed I could get if went to 25 grains to up the power a bit for hunting.
    Also the rifle has a timney but it doesn't feel as crisp as the timney in my weatherby and has creep that I can feel, not consistent, I have adjusted the weight but the sear engagement I havnt touched I even took a turn off the spring to get the trigger below 3lbs. Compaired to the timney in the weatherby this is shit and I use the rifle a lot for target and hunting. I have 3 timney triggers and this is the worst.
