    Did Some Hand Loads For The 223


    Did Some Hand Loads For The 223 Axis with 53gr VMax and some ADI2206H powder (Australian Powder) I just used some fire formed Winchester brass that I have been using and made up 8 different loads starting with 25, 25.3, 25.5, 25.7, 26, 26.3, 26.5 and 26.7 grains of powder. At this stage I just went with standard SAAMI measurements for seating, but will have a look at that later.

    Best results so far at 50mt was with the 26.3gr... 5 shots with 3 at the top and 2 in the bottom... Now to see what it can do at 100
