        What's funny about all this is I have found what I consider to be my dream loads for .223 and now I'm going to start playing with other powders. Haven't found much lately and I'm trying to hold on to my H335 and 748 (why, I have no clue) I have a pound of Alliant 10X....we'll see what it does.
        You know I need to go check my H335 TSX load I did for test it might be 24 grs like the Varget and I might need to go to 25grs. that might tighten it up like I want?

          When I try a new load I usually make batches of 10. If I don't jack around and shoot good groups...I feel two groups of 5 are enough to measure the load. Most of my data comes from another forum. When someone posts their results, I still back off 10% and work my way up. I weighed each charge individually.
          I'm also running this through a bolt gun not a gas gun. I have pictures of a group I shot with an free-floated 18" AR with a 1:9 twist. I think the average was 1 - 1.25 MOA. Which I am ok with running a gas gun ( follow up shots are a little bit faster ) I will post it when I get home.

                  not sure what they like but they eat any and all types of ammo.

                  my AR's are the last gun i'm gonna try and find the "right" bullet for. I like to wear them out!!!
