    223 Load Ladder Head Scratcher

    I did a load ladder today with my 223 which was using Reloader 15 and Rem 7.5 primers. Can anyone try to explain this to me? I was using a Prochrono Chronograph and us ing a pair of flashlights for lighting starting on 22.6 grains NATO. Thanks for the help in advance.
