    .223 with 30 Grain projectiles: Assistance with load data?


    I have a bunch of 30 grain Vmaxes.
    I have searched for .223 loading data for this bullet (I know it's a small one) and have been unable to find any.

    If anyone has a steer toward a location (either on or off the interneck is ok) where I might be able to find some suggestions for starting load development, I'd appreciate it.

    Why 30 grainers? No particular reason. I have them on hand and thought I'd simply give it a try for fun and see what I can make happen in my slow twist 1:12 single shot.

    Tammons,
    Thank you very much. That gives me a much better idea of where to start.
    Your searches turned up more than mine.
    I certainly appreciate the time you took to check for an answer and respond.
    Thanks again,
    Thomae
