Hi all
Before I get the have you done a search? question, then yes I have.
I'm starting to reload .223 which is meant for foxing this weekend, and can't find any kind of consistency on recommended powders.
I use Viht for my 6.5, and that seems to be a consistent recommended powder for that calibre.
I'd like to use Hodgdon at first as it's a smaller tub, and nearly if not half the price (yes I'm a cheapskate as well) just in case I don't like it.
Getting the rifle itself tomorrow, either a Browning Abolt, or a CZ527, and will be using Hornady SP 50gr bullets.
So what do you all use?
The number of replies I get which lists the same powder the most will be the one I try.
Why, because I don't want to reinvent the wheel, and you guys are all users so I have a degree of trust in your answers.
Not asking for your loading grains, as I'll try that myself and find the rifle's sweet spot.
Many thanks for your replies (says he with trepidation)
