brass is all once fired federal and remington brass.
i'm somewhat new to reloading .223 so any advice is appreciated,just thought the best place to start is with other savage shooters.
i'm not expecting someone to give me a perfect load but a good starting point would sure help.
i read many posts saying that 25gn of varget for 55gn vmax worked well and being a mid range safe load i went with it.
i measure and weight everything at least twice for consistency so my rounds are identical.
again,it's all about a starting point and fine tune from there,question then would be what is a good starting point?
