as most of you may know im a new reloader. I have everything I need right now to start loading ammo. I have read my books, got all my cases prepped, etc.
My question is guys say start from low to high and load 5rds. My range is about an hour+ away so its hard to load 5rds shoot them, load 5 the next day to try out.
How would you go about loading if in my shoes?
Say my Hornady 9th edition says H335 Min Charge is 20.8 gn and the Max Charge is 23.2 gn for 55gr V max. how would you do that so I don't have to make multiple trips to the range?
my set up is 100yard range, h335 powder, benchmark powder, 55gr hornady V max, 55gr hornady 55GR SP, Remington, hornady, mixed-once fired brass. cci 440-br4 primers.
all brass has been full length sized, checked in lyman case checker, trimmed using lyman E-Z- TRIM, de-burr and chamfered. I have rcbs dies, lyman micro touch scale, lyman and hornady manuals. I am using a lee C press, lee prefect powder measure.
Gun-Savage 223 Heavy barrel 1-9 twist. the gun loves nothing but v maxes so my goal is to load some woodchuck hunting rounds and target loads. my goal is to get the most accurate round I can make.
anything I left out or other suggestions are open.
