When I used to work in reman ammo, we used SMP-735 or WC844- canister versions of H335... in all of our testing with different AR’s, 25.5 grains with a 55 grain Armscore seated to 2.230” was the magic load. Shot consistent MOA groups out of multiple guns. Take it for what it’s worth.

I love this series. I had always been taught that the shorter the jump to the lands, the more accurate your rounds would be. I have always "cheated" to the long side with my reloads. You have disproved my "common wisdom". Back to the drawing board.

@Thorsaxe777 6 жыл бұрын

Johnny, I believe it is just what you said at the close of this video. "Your Rifle set up" and I do not believe getting another rifle with the same barrel would be cost-effective. I believe that the viewer should take these tests as "Potentially most accurate loadings" instead of Brass on the table say all win all loadings in all rifles. This is the reason Hand-loading is so important to Match shooters. a barrel can and will change as the erosion and ware in the barrel progress. I like how you are going about this though. as there is no real brand name, Just low-cost bullets being squeezed for what they and do. Keep up the good work dude.

@bisonuberti 6 жыл бұрын

Johnny... I think your .223 shootout video series is an excellent learning experience for those looking for a starting point. However, the shooter (viewer) has to bare in mind that all individual rifle set up configuration will ultimately decide what works best in each weapon. As we all know that these test will inevitably perform differently in each configuration. Two thumbs up. Shoot lots and stay safe.

So I’ve really enjoyed your videos. I find the videos that show a ladder test way more useful than a video like this where you are picking one powder charge and testing multiple bullets. Not sure this video shows anything except your Rifle doesn’t like 25gr of H335 with 55’s at the two seating depths. Personally, I have recently been using the “10 round load development ladder test”. For me it’s been a huge time saver. Good luck and thanks.

Good vid JRB. That first Hornady group looks like it would have been a 1/2” with out the one shot that was a Flyer. That group looked like it was trying to group vs the others. So many people run 25.0 grains of H335 with Hornady 55FMJ, it seems to be a good plinking load. But yes better options out there for accuracy. Ever shot the Hornady 55grain SP? Many people report better accuracy with those and they are around the same price as Hornadys FMJ’s. Keep up the great vids.

See if there is a correlation with bullet roundness. Use a real micrometer, not a caliper. My Sierra bullets all mike less than .0001 out of round, but most other brands are up to .0005 out of round. I was having fliers with one brand of bullet until I pushed them through a Lee sizer. Made three passes until I could not mike any out of round, and the fliers went away.

Ah, cheap bullets give cheap results. Might I get better groups by sorting them to roundness? Maybe, but what is the reason? I'm not trying to get my Hornady's to shoot 500 yards in the X ring. I just want a cheap bullet that will make a hole in something when laying the bump fire stock to it. :D

@@uraniumpenetrator3844 Yes Johnny did all of that in previous videos. These are the ones that shot best from the manual after a ladder test. Now some experimenting with longer lengths. Which is safe unless jambing into the lands. Then you may run pressure up. Keep in mind I a just a keyboard warrior but Dec./Jan. Shooting Times magazine demonstrated this extremely well with 9mm pistol rounds. In their demo just a couple of tenths over max sent pressures way up, but lengthing made it safe with max loading thus lowering pressure but reducing velocity. They were demonstrating velocity vs. pressure in 9mm. Keep in mind you can't just decide to run under a published load either. That can lead to to much air space in the case which can cause the powder to all ignite at once which would be an explosion OVERPRESSURE! and not a controlled burn.

I would love to. I've been using AA2520 so much that I worry about making too many videos with it. It has become a favorite of mine! I haven't done any tests with it and lighter bullets though, so I think I will add it to this series.

AA2520 is a killer powder for 77s.

Bob's look more like a rounded flat base.

This is cool trying to split the hairs on a nats ass. But let's remember that an AR shooting 1 to 2 moa out to 300 yds is all u ever going to need. Fun tho threading the needle with an AR.

I like IMR 4064 have not tried it in any of my Rem 223 Loads but in my Rem 22/250 it covers a dime with bullets in the 50-55 gr's out to 200 yds deadly on Coyotes, But I Want to try it in my Rem 223 also, Thanks Moose.

I load 23 grains with it under the 55's, if memory serves. Light accurate plinker. 4064 is a bit more expensive though.

Ahh yes, reloading, where you spend a lot of time and money for disappointment!

I swore my 55gr with H335 pet loaf was 25.5gr out of my 16 grow upper. But I lost my dam loading data. And everyone swears by the 25.0gr as a solid pet node. I guess todays batch is going to be 25.0gr... I wish I could find my old data. I SWORE it was a 25.5gr load. Swore it 😂

This comment was equal parts loaf, node, and load. :-) How did the batch come out?
