To anyone who has the latest Hornady manual:

What is the listed COL of the Hornady 75gr HPBT match bullet for .223 Remington (or 5.56 NATO if listed)? I'm guessing it's around 2.240", but I was interested in Hornady's published info.

Thanks.

The Hornady 6th edition does not list the 75 gr. bullet for the .223, but does show it in 5.56X45 NATO. COL with the #2279 BTHP is 2.250".

2.250" from Hornady 5th Edition, as well. I use that same bullet under 23.0grs. of Varget and get great results. 2550fps out of my 20" 1-8" twist barrel.
