help with these .223's please

[firesky101]

So I got a pretty good deal on a bunch of commercial reload .223 from the 80's today. I was hoping someone could tell me what to expect from these. I cannot find very much info on the powder.

Case: lake city 1972
Primer: cci
Powder: h338 26.5gr
Bullet: sierra sp 55gr

I wouldn't know what to exprect at all.

There is no such thing as H-338 powder and never has been.

That's what I kinda expected. I assume they meant to write h335 then. Thanks rc

Ahhh!
A dyslexic reloader loaded them huh!!

Yeah if it is 335 that is over sierras max for that bullet anyway. I am just going to pull them down. It was still a great deal.
