As far as you can and still get it in the magazine (on the assumption that your barrel is throated for these)

I'm going to guess you're shooting these for match or match practice, so single loading in the mag is what you're doing anyway.
Mr. H is right on keeping them as long as possible if you're throated for it. I've found that the Amax seem to like a bit of a jump, between 5-20 thou as opposed to the Vmax liking about 5 thou of jam in my rifles.
This is across several calibers, not just 223

Mr. H does not realize that one cannot load the 80gr A-Max to fit in the magazine; the bullet is even longer than the 75gr A-Max.
When I shot A-maxes, I kept them just off the lands.
