I've been working on some .223 77 Grain HPBT Match Kings (no cannurl) with 22.5 grains of Varget. I am reloading into headstamp sorted LC brass. I am running this with a 20" .223 Wylde chambered AR.
I have a question about velocity, specifically it seams rather low with a 10 shot average at 2580 FPS and a deviation of less than 30.
Accuracy is ok, though it could better with better glass. I'm shooting about a 1.5" group @200 yards.
If I charge more powder, the accuracy degrades significantly with random fliers.
Considering my range maxes out to 200 yards, this is all I have to get out of it and thus I see no reason to push more powder. I am asking if others with similar loads experience the relative same velocity.
