.223 with H4895

[BeerAlchemist]

Another newb question that my forum search did not answer...

I got some H4895, Winchester small rifle primers, Hornady 55gr FMJ BT, and a metric ass load of LC brass ready to go...finally. So, how should I proceed. So far the best figure I can find was from Hogden saying to start with 25gr on a 55gr SPR SP and max at 26. Should this suffice or should I start lower due to the BT rounds I'm using? Oh yeah, its going out a 16" 1:9 AR.

Thats the same load I use in my DPMS 1-9 upper, 20" barrel.I also use that load with a Hornady 68 match.
