[QUOTE="TMill308, post: 1805280, member: 92888"] My best three powders with the heavy bullets in the .223 have been H4895, Varget and IMR 8208 in that order. The CCI 450 seems to be the best primer for me. Im using a 30 inch Brux barrel with a chamber that has .200 freebore. The 85.5 is not picky about jump so if your chamber allows it, I would start about .015 off the lands and work back from there. Not knowing what chamber you have I would start with 23.5 grains and work up with either H4895 or Varget. 8208 start a little lower. [/QUOTE]
