Ok, I know this is a bit specific, but I am hoping someone here has done this and can save me some time.

I am loading a virgin case (so it gets fireformed) with TAC and a 62 TSX. I shot 24.7 (.2 grains over max)out of my AR with an OAL at mag length, and everything was fine. I am wondering how much hotter I can make the load for a bolt gun loading out to 2.325 OAL?

Anyone with specific info?

Thanks. (of course I am going to work the load up, yada yada yada yada)

I load my 223ai fireform cases to book max with the specific bullet weight. I've not, however, loaded up any forming loads with 62gr tsx.

Im running 25gr in mine with 70gr bergers, lapua brass, cci400. No pressure signs. Ran the same load in my ar with the 60gr vmax and never had any trouble. Never done anything with the tsx's though.
