Re: Think I have a 223 load sorted

Good load development Raven.
I've settled on 26gn of 2206 for 55gn projectiles too. My groups aren't as good as yours though.

PS. If you find a better load, then we all want to hear about it.

Re: 20VT Journey Begins

G'Day Camel, plastic but with factory adjustable cheek piece, nice but not my cuppa tea. Cheerio Geoff Hi Ned, Do you think it'd be a straightforward home handyman job to put the adjustable cheek piece onto another stock? I have a left handed varmint. The fixed cheek piece is a little too low for m...

Re: .20-222 load development

Bugger! Those groups just won't open up no matter how far back you go. Just keep posting things up Marcus. I can't add anything useful, but like seeing how accurate that thing is. Must ... resist ... 20 cal ... must ... resist ... 222 ... parent cartridge. Must ... resist ... re-barrel.
