Quoted:
Anyone using this bullet with CFE223 in their AR15? I have five manuals including nosler and can't find a recipe. Closest is a sie mk hpbt in hodgen handbook. That's because the powder is newer than most if not all manuals. Use the matchking data in the Hodgdon handbook or website. |

Both were just ok for accuracy. But know where near as good as XM193. Was using a 18" Nordic barrel 1-8 twist. The XM 193 was about 1" groups at 100 yds. I also shot a few of my old Hi Power load. Nosler 77 gr, with 24 gr VV N140. This group was under a 1/2" at 100 yards. |

I'm usually around a 25 SD when loading from my Dillon 1050. So seeing the numbers under 20 was okay with me. I'm sure if I loaded with a single stage press, my numbers would be a lot better.
Factory .223 ammo tends to be around 15 SD out of my AR. |

If your talking CFE Pistol, I will agree there. |
