    My Varget load data is from the ADI website comparison saying that Varget is the same as IMR 4046 and using the value from Hornady 9th edition Handbooks second lowest value to be on the safe side,
    36.1 grains should be around the 2300fps mark and considering i have a rem 700 in 308 for hunting anything that the .223 wont handle the K11 is more for fun target/ historical value i don't mind loading on the safe side for it.
    Definitely handy too have some experienced opinions to back up what you read on a chambering to give some extra confidence before you go trying something out.

    Gunworks is certainly your first 'port of call' for brass - but if anyone wants factory ammo to get themselves started I'm pretty sure Ballingers H&F Chch had an old packet of Norma when I was in there recently. With the passing of time it was pretty reasonably priced.
