Tac in 223

Re: Tac in 223

Ramshot website's Load Guide. Click load guide on the left sidebar, then scroll down to rifle data, .223 (watch the right side), Pg 7. The data for the 1:7"-1:9" barrels are based on a 24" barrel, so your results will likely be slower. TAC is their recommended powder for the AR/69gr, I would use Big Game for 69-80gr bullets in a <span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold">bolt</span></span> gun. I have gone with 26.5gr of Big Game and the HDY 75gr HPBT Match in a 24" Sav 10FP, but I suspect Big Game may not be as compatible with gas systems and heavy bullets.

25.4 grains (this is above max) at 2.250 OAL in mixed LC brass with Wolf Small Rifle Mag primers...light crimp on Dillon dies.

2880 fps from my 18 inch JP with 1-8 twist.

Good luck.
