    What is the barrel length and twist rate of your 223?

    My son shoots a Savage 223, 26" barrel 1:7 twist in FTR competition.
    We prefer to shoot 80 gr A-Max but these aren't available at the moment.

    Last weekend we shoot the 75gr A-Max with 24.7 gr ADI 2208, seated 0.005" off the measured maximum - this is our 80 gr recipe (in Norma cases).
    Looks like we could add a little more 2208 if we wished.
