That's pretty cool I didn't know they were making those. Use the 140gr. Load data in the Hornady book and start low. You should be ok.

Hornady does not make a 135 gr. Ftx. They make a 140 gr. ftx and have data for it in their load book. They also make a 160 gr. ftx.

The E-tip is longer than a lead core 55gr. from Nosler so it will take up more case capacity and build higher pressures. I'll just have to start low and work my way up. We'll see how it goes.

I like the Lee quick trim. It is very precise and can be set to the exact length you want.

Good idea. I never thought of that. Thanks

I've taken a look at it. They don't include the E-tip in that data though it may be the same.

Try the 55gr blitz king. It works good for varmint. If you're looking for top accuracy anything between 68 & 70 grains works well for a 1 in 9 twist. Look up the Greenhill formula on Wikipedia.

Try CFE223

I would go with the deluxe die set. it works with all types of rifles. IMR 8208 XR is also a very accurate powder and you don't need to use as much as CFE223 witch I also use. I have also heard Varget is a good one but I haven't tried it yet. Also a flash hole uniforming tool helps with accuracy.

The Ak uses a .310 diameter bullet. You may blow your gun up.

Is anyone reloading the Nosler 55gr. E-tip for 223 - 5.56? I can't find any load data for it short of buying the Nosler manual for this one bullet or using Barnes or Hornady load data.

Graf & Sons has some good sales on components right now.

They are next to each other on the burn rate chart but I don't think they are the same.

Use the 60gr. data in the manual. If you go to Hornady's web site you can download a pdf with the data that includes the 62gr. fmj and they added a few extra powders to.
