.223 with IMR 8208 XBR?

[Farlsincharge]

Has anyone loaded .223 with xbr?
Any velocity results?

Just looking at the load data for 65 gr bullets, the numbers don't seem to add up. The max load (23.1) seems too low considering the burn rate, yet the pressure is up around 52,000.

Where did you find XBR8208?

I thought it was readily available now. I got it locally, small retailer, doesn't ship. If your close to SW SK shoot me a pm.

I've been using it behind a 40gr V-Max and a CCI 450 primer in my Edge. Don't know how fast it's running but I get 1/2 to 3/4 in. groups with it.

Should be similar to H322 in burn rate.

Been seeing some very nice results in some of the 20 caliber cartridges like 20 Extreme and 204 Ruger. FS
