Hi guys, a bit of a 223 reloading newb here. I bought some brass and some projectiles off a member on here. The projectiles are 68 & 69 grain hpbt match grade. I shoot a savage axis heavy barrel which I believe is a 1:9 twist. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I have great results with vmax 55 grain over 24 grains of h335. Thats the only powder i have right now. I wanted to load some of the heavier bullets but was unsure if i needed diff loading books for match grade stuff. Im sure someone on here can give me some load data or advice. Thanks guys.

A couple of good reloading books would be very beneficial, also a Google search will get you to online reloading info such as on Hodgdon reloading, and/or a subscription to sites such as loaddata.com would really help you out right now.

My advice is to buy some manuals ;), and not trust what strangers type on the webz.
 
I have one manual, and now thanks to a fellow CGNer i have pdfs of a bunch more. I was asking for other peoples input so i could see where the data in my manual falls. I always thought it was good to reference more than one place. At least a couple guys on here were willing to help rather than offer asinine comments. Thanks to those that chose to be beneficial with there words, and to those that choose not to be, piss off and post in different thread.
