halveyHornady 52 Gr BTHP and Varget load needed
I have some Hornady 52 Gr BTHP .224 (.223 Rem)that were given to me and was looking for some loading data for it.
I figured the same data could be used for Sierra's 52 gr, but it seems the Hornady needs to be seated a bit deeper.
This is for a bolt gun if that matters.
Any help is appreciated.

Dan in WaMy standard accuracy load with the 52's is 27.0grs W748 and the Remington 7 1/2BR primer seted just off the lands. Has shot suberb in many .223 rifles. By the way the Sierras are usually a little better, but then so are the Noslers some times.
