Being an FCSA member is great but maybe I can get 223 load info here. I bought a Fulton Armory lower receiver and an M.&A. upper kit with a 16" barrel which shoots great. I then bought a Nikon M-223 with the BDC reticle which is set for a 55 grain Bal. tip @ 3240 FPS. So far the only powder to be hot enough to NOT be compressed AND be < or >3240 is IMR 4198 @ 22.5- 22.8 gr. I have no sign of over pressure (primer cratering) and there is free space in the 22.8 load, anyone chasing this load too? Thanks
