I know the standard load for H335 and 55Grn FMJ is 25.0 grn for practice. I'm having trouble finding data for 62grn FMJ, anybody use or try 25.0grn H335 with 62grn FMJ. |

Max load for a 62 grn FMJ depends upon whether you are loading for 223 or 5.56. That also depends upon what chamber you have. If your chamber is a 223, then that load is a bit high, however, if you have a 5.56 chamber or a Wylde chamber then that load is not high. I have 'Wylde like' chambered Mini 14 and I shoot 62 grn Hornady exclusively in it. My standard loads for my Mini is 25.3 grns of H335 with 62 grn bullet and a SR primer in NATO marked LC brass and 25.1 grns of W748 with 62 grn bullet and a SR primer in NATO marked LC brass. |
