Hi all, I can't seem to find much data on the net for .224 75 a-max. I have pieced this together as a starting point from different sources and am just looking for a yes or no answer as to whether or not it seems o.k. My rifle is a Tikka t3 lite .223, 1in 8 twist, I'm thinking 24.4 grs. of varget,with c.o.a.l. of 2.390. I realize these won't fit in the clip but droppin them in one at a time is not an issue.
 
My Hornady manual gives a max load of 23.5gr of Varget with the 75gr Amax for use in AR's for service rifle competition, OAL 2.390". Your Tika should have no problems with that as a reference load.

my t3 lite would not shoot Varget with 75's accurately, at all. It does shoot well with 23.5 of Benchmark, and the 75 Amax seated out long, over a magnum primer (the magnum primers made all the difference in the world!)
