[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 242103, member: 307"] Misfire, Not sure why there's a difference in the Hornady data. I looked it up in my Nosler #6 and there is a difference in the .223 and 5.56mm data there. For the .223 Rem. I'm seeing 22.5-24.5gn of Varget as min/max load for the 60gn Partition. For the 5.56x45mm I'm seeing 23.0-25.0gn's of Varget for the 69gn Competition. Normally, as the bullet weight increases the amount of powder is less. Only thing I can think of is the thicker brass for the 5.56 and the gas(pressure) required for operating the gas system of the AR. I've loaded for the .223 in a bolt rifle but never in a gas gun.
