in the opening page where it talks about the 204 ruger just click the link that has load data and wait for the 223 to appear.

I've been messing with a Savage, rechambered from regular .223 to AI. It has a 25 inch barrel, 1:9 twist. It works well with 75gr. A-max, and 69gr. Sierras. Haven't tried it with anything heavier yet. It'll do 3500 fps with the Sierras using WW748, though I think something just a touch slower would work better if you want more speed.
