fav Ar loads 55gr. H335

[evanc24]

Hello Fello Realoaders and AR shooters.

I have been doing some testing lately prepairing for winter reloading. My powder of choice is H335 and bullet is 55gr FMJBT. Different load manuals have different max ranges for this combo but most people say they get best results with 25gr, however in my rifles seems 23gr gets MOA or better accuracy at 100yds. My rifles are 14.5" and 20" with a 1/9 Twist. As the powder loads went up from 23 the groupings got wider. Im just wondering if anyone else has any experience with this or opinions. Guess I just wanna get some opinions on what to reload before i go and do a few thousand loads lol. What loads work for you and what accuracy are you getting?

Thanks and happy shooting

then 23gr is your sweet spot.

see above.

max loads seldom shoot well, above max loads seem to work great for alot of folks online, below max loads work best for most everyone i know in person.... if your rifles cycle and group well at 23gr then you are ahead of the game by better brass life and a 2gr per case powder saveings... 2gr x2000 reloads = 86.9565217 free round's.
