Have a new unfired 15" 8 twist striker barrel, started as a rifle barrel. Looking for some load data, if there is enough room for the longer heavier stuff. Have 55, 69, 75, and 81 grain on hand, and a fair selection of powders. Anyone tried these?

They will give you pistol data as well as rifle. The pistol was shot in a 10+" barrel.
Because of the factory twists(thus no data), and lack of case capacity; I think you will be REALLY unhappy with much over a 60gr bullet.
Case capacity will be the end all if the longer bulets have to seat. Noticed there is data for 70 grain, maybe the 69's will work? Had a bunch of 81gr left overs I was going to use for break in.
The 55 grains are ringers in the striker! The chamber is a bit tight on the reloaded cases from the CZ chambering. I need some new .221fb brass. LOW RECOIL! Shooting small group.
