    A Chronograph is on the wish list , maybe a self funded Christmas present
    The issue with these projectiles is that they are really long ( copper monolithic) and at the recommended seating depth they protrude down into the case quite a bit .
    I knew when I started that 2206H wasn’t probably going to be the right powder , but it is what I have on hand at the moment.
    The good news though is that my little test yesterday has shown that they will shoot in my rifle/ barrel .
    A couple of guys that I’ve been in contact with who use these say that they up the .223 effectiveness by quite a margin on bigger / heavier Pigs etc and that’s what I’m chasing.
    FALL IN LOVE WITH THE NUMBERS , NOT THE IDEA
