I'm looking to build a 18.5" 223AI as a predator rifle, I'm planning on running 75amax's over 8208. I was hoping somebody with a similar build or quick load could give me some insight on what kind of velocities to expect out of it. I don't plan on hunting past 400yds, but would still like to ring steel 6-700yds in the off season

I have a 22" that I shoot 75 amax exclusively.
I know it's not exactly the info your looking for, but I'll share that with you if your interested.

I've got data from a 21" custom (rock creek) and a 22" factory tube (tikka t3).
223 AI
22" 8tw Krieger
75 Amax
25.0 Varget 2850 fps Virgin Lapua Brass
26.2 Varget in a fire formed Lapua Brass 2985 fps
The averages for these two loads is for a very large data set for both loads
Such a fun round to shoot
