As the title says. I'm looking for some load data on the 69gr sierra matchking for .223rem. for a bolt action

I checked the hodgdon site it says 26gr as max just want confirm.

Anyone have the sierra book?
 
depends on the rifle sierra data is different for AR and bolt rifles..

Accuracy load for AR 25.3 Varget COAL 2.260 barrel twist 1/7
Accuracy Load for Bolt 26.5 Viht N540 COAL 2.260 Twist 1/8

You will find the varget load good in almost any rifle. I have also had great success with H4895 with 25.5 being the max listed in the Sierra manual, Start low and work up as always..

always start low, work up

Now with that said, Sierra 69 gr MK, 25.8 Vargent, Win brass, CCI BR4, .018" jump. I have shot this to 403 yds, bipod, 10 FLCPK without muzzle brake.

It shoots 5 shots just inside 3" with 2 flyers included. YMMV but a good data point for you when considering various loads.

Cheers
