Quote: Me either, except you substitute just about any 50 grain bullet and perhaps add a grain. I am not fussy about the primer, either. This load really shoots in .223s. | |||

Posted under small bore as well. I just picked up Kimber of Oregon 223 and want to develop an accurate load for 50-55gr bullets. If you have one please let me know. I'd appreciate you listing all the components since I have to purchase all. Thanks Jim | |||

Jim, I've been using the .223 for several years now....I have 3 custom rifles in this caliber and realy like them a lot...H-335 is a great powder, meters very well and gives good velocity....26 grains of H-335 with the 50 grain bullet has been a standard for years....About a year or two ago, Hodgdon came out with a powder called Benchmark...Its hard to beat in the .223 Rem. with 50 grain bullets, 25 to 26 grains is very accurate and the velocity is as high or higher than any other powder I've tried...I don't use 55 grain bullets in the .223 Rem. so I can't help you much there...Good luck with your loads...George | |||

H335 is great with 55's and 69's in mine. Also varget is pretty good but highly bulky and really gets things full! Also lately N133 has been giving me good 53 and 55 grain results. With the 223, lots of good choices! | |||
