| What is the hive mind opinion on CFE 223 now that the powder has been out for a few years? Been using Ramshot Tac for quite sometime and wanted to try something new. Thinking about picking up a pound and developing a 223 load with it. |

Quoted:
I decided a few months back I wanted to copy the Hornady 75 grain TAP ammo that I have shot for many years. I used CFE 223 and was able to make a load that was the velocity and accuracy equivalent of the TAP round. I am very happy with it. I did the same with it. |

Quoted:
My CFE 223 load is 25.5gr pushing a 75gr match bullet. <a href="http://s300.photobucket.com/user/rccox/media/Guns/026DECAC-6A70-480D-9829-AC0FD7AA50C6.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn38/rccox/Guns/026DECAC-6A70-480D-9829-AC0FD7AA50C6.jpg</a> <a href="http://s300.photobucket.com/user/rccox/media/Guns/4B095AA0-B4E5-4536-A77D-E142B47F1364.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn38/rccox/Guns/4B095AA0-B4E5-4536-A77D-E142B47F1364.jpg</a> Where do you get boxes? That is some next level shit. What press do you use? |

That is some next level shit. What press do you use? The boxes come from Midway and I use a RCBS rockchucker, yes I know bulk reloading on a single stage sucks but I am all about having identical loads when I am done. I have had a Dillon 650 sitting in my shop for a few years, one of these days I will get it set up.

I'm doing several K a year past few years on a Lee classic setup. It honestly doesn't bother me one bit. I may get a turret press with 4 dies I believe it's called one day. I loaded 300 75gr BTHP with TAC and 300 55gr ball with H335 just in August. Started loading 300blk and .380 this week. Happy dude. |
