    Powder for 223

    Depends on the chamber. .223 or 5.56? The load data is really different. Then Hornady has a Service Rifle section. Sierra doesn’t list 5.56 data. So really like anything else in reloading. It varies.

    5.56 AR Only Loads

    NH4X 23 grains with the CFE is 2.9 grains under max for 5.56 data Hornady, and 1.7 for 223 Service rifle data (80gr), for a 77. If I drop down to the 75 data it is 3.5 gr under for 5.56 and not listed for service rifle. Sierra has 25 being the high number. But that is 223 data not 5.56. I am...

    5.56 AR Only Loads

    Is anybody running CFE223 and 69 and 77 SMKs? I just loaded LC 1X sorted by year, CCI 41’s. Interested in what others are running for charge weights. May have to try some Varget but am wanting to save that for others. Scored 2 8# CFE223’s recently.

    Bad Brass or too hot?

    For the way you beat up on him for his grammar, what is factor brass. He who lives in a glass house shouldn’t throw stones. Money doesn’t buy you sense.

    458 SOCOM 400 Maker handload

    Why a magnum primer with Lil Gun? I save the magnums for H110/W296 type powders. Use standard with Lil Gun, IMR 4227, and IMR 4198 under 300 and 350’s. Have not loaded many 350+ as finding them is not easy. I have a 350FTX load at 1745 FPS. SD is 9.6 and ES is 20.1. That was a 10 shot...

    hodgon's web page has some powders in stock

    That means they had the quantity when you put it in the cart and someone bought some. Go back and reduce numbers until it takes the order. They have had powder of differing types the last month or so. Not often 8#ers though which make it more worth it.

    6.5 Creedmore Failure to Eject

    Carbine tube with the JP SCS, been searching the old web. I have the buffer retaining spring and pin in. That wouldn’t make a difference with the JP SCS would it? It hasn’t on my small frame builds from .223-458 Socom. Have not had near this problem with small frame guns.

    6.5 Creedmore Failure to Eject

    New build. I know, large frame guns are harder than small frame guns. But I have about 30,000 LR Primers and am down to about 1000 ST Primers. map decided to put a couple large framed guns together to play with. the problem child is a 6.5 Creedmore. Stats are Aero Precison Receivers. Faxon...

    Priming tool worn?

    Did you have the right shell holder in it? Looks like you put a SRP through a shell holder that worked, but was designed for a LRP.

    NY compliant AR

    Growing up in PA and having semi autos outlawed for hunting, the 760/7600 was called the PA Semi Auto. You were jealous when you had a bolt gun and heard a guy let go with one on a deer drive.

    Recent hand primer purchases

    RCBS. I bought one when all I ever did was LRP. So you have to change out the seating rod. Used to be it was two pieces. I lost both the LR and SR Seating rods after taking a break from reloading. yes it takes shell holders but I use a Rockchucker, so no big deal. I bought a second. New...

    Magnum Primers - Central Oregon

    I can still find those for $50 occasionally several places, as well as large rifle and both pistol sizes. Also see CCI 7.62 and 50BMG military occasionally. Between them and Large rifle I would almost be willing to trade 2 for 1 small rifle.

    Load Work Up New Brass

    So it’s been a couple years since I got set up for reloading. I bought 200 pieces of 6.5CM Hornady brass. Circa 2012. Never used them because the rifle really like 140 A-Max and it shit really well. Box said 41.5 gr H4350. Thats above book volume #9 of Hornady book and top of book for #10z...

    Load Work Up New Brass

    Do you get good work up data out of brand new brass? Just am wondering if it’s worth the time to do all the details to do an OCW or ladder test off of brand new brass, or just load and shoot it using off powered and bullets before using the good stuff. Form the chamber and then bump 0.002 to...

    Reasonable Accuracy from LAR-15 Predator Pursuit

    Re: Reasonable Accuracy from LAR-15 Predator Pursu Mine is a 20" tube. Great gun. Bought it to really replace a bolt gun for coyotes to be honest. I really have come to like to shoot the two AR's I have now. Ordered a bunch of crap to start reloading for them. It shoots 69 and 77s ok...
