berger .224 70gr vld with h335?
I've seen loads with this bullet for R15, Varget, AA2230, H4895, Benchmark, etc.. but nobody seems to be using h335. I'm stuck with it as that's all i have, but i can't find any load data on it anywhere. from what i HAVE found is a load from 22gr to 24.9gr but it was relating to a different 70gr bullet, and I'm fairly new so i don't know if it would make any difference or not. also, I'm shooting a Stevens 200 in .223REM.

Sierra's Fifth Edition has data for H335 and their 69g Match Bullet. They used a 26" Remington 600 with a 1-14 Twist for their data. They start with 23gr and go up to 25.7gr as a maximum load. I would load the 70gr Berger like the 69gr Sierra. Start with 23gr and work up until you hit an accuracy node.
I have found, like a lot of other 223 shooters, that Reloader 15 and the 70gr Berger are a great combination.
