Tik Tac 223

[Japseye]

Hey Folks,
I am just about to start reloading and am asking the collective wisdom of you folks to point me in the right direction with what you find works well in a Tikka Tactical 223 20 Inch barrel.
Thanks....

Have just started reloading .223 for a Remington VTR Myself 1:9 Barrel twist.

Used Hornady 60 gr sp Bullet

Varget 22.7gr

H 4895 22.5 gr

Backed off .01 from Lands.Both loads were start loads, was happy with accuracy, and will up the volume next w/e

Factory ammunition and H414 were not very accurate for my 2c worth.

Looking forward to other comments.

You need to figure out your twist rate first. If it's 1 in 8 you can shoot up to 80 grainers. Most people use varget powder I believe and I use cci primers.
Have fun
