223 Pig Bullet

[hunter24605]

His 64gr BSB blems from SPS arrived and he dropped them off along with his AR. I weighed about 40 out of the 400 and they seem to be fine. Looks like Nosler data likes CFE223. I have a bunch of it, so I guess I'll start with it..I do wish they'd publish data for the NATO chamber as well. If one of you fine gents with QL would run it, I'd much appreciate it.

5.56 NATO
64 BSB
CFE223
16" bbl

Anyone have thoughts on these bullets and Hodgdon H335? I have some of that powder at home, but neither Hodgdon nor Nosler list it for these particular bullets. Hodgdon does list it for the 63gr. Sierra SP 22.5-25.0gr.) and the 69gr. Sierra HPBT (22.0-24.0gr.). Anyone see a problem using this data for the Nosler BSB bullets? Any reason why this bullet/powder wouldn't be worth trying?

Cheers,
Brian

I don't see an issue...I use 335 with 60 grain Sierra HPs and it works great.

Shouldn't be any issue at all..I shoot 335 with the 69 TMK's and it's sub 1/2 MOA at 2730 fps.
