Thread: More hunting ammo..

Got bored today and loaded up some more hunting ammo.

.223 commercial brass
64gr Winchester Power Points
COL 2.250
Fed 205 primers
24.7gr of AA2230



Sorry the pics suck.....I took them with my phone.

Made 50 more of the same ammo today. I shouldn't need any for a looooooong time.

hey can you make 270 if i have the brass?

Zach,
I don't have any dies, powder or projectiles for .270.

looking good, what kind of groupsings are you getting. I played with my 223 this weekend at my 100yrd range by my house. Man it was nice to have the luxary of loading up 5 or 10 and tesing before loading up another 5 or 10. This way if I had a good group I could load another 5 of that loading and retest before moving on.

Never got a chance to check them out that well. I made some earlier this summer that where grouping pretty good at 100yd to use for hunting.

Man I f'd up my 223 load. I mistakenly purchased CCI Bench rest primers instead of the regular CCI ones. I noticed this during my checks and rechecks before assembly so I reduced the charge and worked back up. My gun does NOT like these primers. My load that was shooting .5" on a very regular basis went to more than an inch. Glad I only purchased one sleeve.
