New to reloading and I happen to have 223 brass resized and deprimed and N140 powder and Everglades 62 grain FMJ bullets. Checked the data on the powder but looking for any advice for how to make my experience better.
 
When you bought your N140 they included a free VV load data book right?

Also, plenty of VV recipes available in a lot of bullet specific reloading data books.

You can pretty-much use any 62 grain FMJ load data from reputable source material to load your bullets but, as already recommended, start low and work-up. Double check with the manufacturer for any max velocity recommendations.

Also, you might wanna watch a few of Johnny's Reloading Bench YouTube videos ... he's got an entire series on 62 grain fmj bullets and one of them does include N140.

N140 is an outstanding propellant btw. I'm out of it and I'm jealous. Been trying to get more since I ran-out last July. Need more N133 as well. All of VV's offerings are outstanding ... they're just so darn expensive and hard to come-by.

I didn’t get the data loading book Thanks and I’m going to look at the utube videos now
 
Sierra has a load data pdf for .223 in AR platform and bolt action with a fair amount of VV n140 used as well. I love N140 in my .223 with heavies and .308 win!
