[QUOTE="Johnboy, post: 457557, member: 20409"] hey if you want to try something get you some IMR8208XBR.I have been loading with this powder and have found that it really works great in my 223 1:9 with a 69gn NCC.and it will knock out one nice hole at 100 for me and give me a 1"3/4 group at 300 with little wind.( 15 shoot group ) I worked up to the load that I'am useing .I started at 22.0gn's and went all the way up too 25.0gn's.and yes I watched for pressure signs with each load.started to get flat primers with 23.8gn's in my rifel.25.0gn's gave me too flat of a primer so I stuck with 24.5gn's.and this one load gave great accuracy.but now I have backed down .5gn's to 24.0gn's.I started the test loading all rounds with a 2.290 C.O.A.L. and have stuck with that length. again its something I worked up too and shoot in my rifel.will even add that this powder seems to be really clean.it only takes a few wet patches along with a few dry to clean my rifel.while brushing with a brass brush between the wet patches.
