    Some beginner questions...


    Mornin all... I recently worked up a load for my .223, using H4895 and starting from 25gr. and increasing in .2gr increments until my final step at 25.8gr . The 25.8gr proved to be the best by far at under .5". Having fount the load at near max charge... I have the following questions...

    If I change brass, and the new type is at least the same H2O capacity or more, Am I good to load the same charge? I am not interested in pushing things...

    If I change powder type, but not bullet weight, should I look for the same speed for the accuracy point?(obviously staying below max pressures...)

    What about the type of bullet, but not weight?

    Thanks all, Off to work....

    When you change ANY of the components, it's prudent to work the load up again, especially if you near max load.
