What are you best most accurate loads you guys got in either weight?

What is accuracy velocity like?

thanx
 
My personal 223 loves the 40grainer with
Viht N133 26.0grains @ 3700 fps


The 50grainer you can't go wrong with Varget

25.0grains @ 3100fps.

Benchmark has also worked very well with both.
 
For Prairie Dogs in either .223 Rifles or .223 Contender Handguns I have shot a lot of the 40gr. Nosler Ballistic Tips. I have achieved the best accuracy with H-4198SC and H-322. I have been getting the 40's to 3650 FPS in the Rifles and 3200 FPS in the Handguns.

I just made the deal on a T/C Encore Rifle today in .223, and will be trying both the 40gr. & 50gr. Nosler Ballistic Tips in it.

Thank you fellas. I think I can almost see a CZ 527 in 223 under the X-mas tree..
 
Well if it gets here in time there will be a new Stainless-Steel T/C Encore Rifle with a 24" .223 Remington Barrel, 2.8x10x44mm Simmons ATEC Rifle Scope and some other goodies under my Christmas Tree. I really hate it when I have to buy my own Christmas presents, but at least I am assured of getting what I really want.

Roger that!
 
My CZ-527 American likes 27 gr of H-335 with the 40 gr BT. (Or 28.5 gr of W-748). It also likes 26 gr of H-335 with the 50 gr BT.
