Still got your face attached so that's success!
How'd they go? 40 grains of powder runs best out of my howa when pushing a 55 grain bullet. what kinda groupings did you get?
40gr of powder in a 223 case ??? :o
yessssssss ... I was going to go with 50gr of powder , but I thought better of it as I'd been drinking at the time and my smoke kept falling out of the ashtray above my bench ...
:ORLY: :yaeh am not durnk:
24 dont know why i put 40,Quote:

Puts the fun/fear factor back into reloading...
probably coz I originally put 40gr although with reference to the projectile weight ;)
I didnt fire more than one round ... just wanted to check for signs of overload .... still 5 to fire of each ... will fire those tonight thru the chrony :D
