I am running around 9.2 grains of H110 in PMC or LC formed cases with Wolf 223 primers, 175 SMKs, and OAL of 2.17".

Your chamber may obviously be different.

This keeps me in the low 1000fps...

Thanks Hoser

Anybody Resort to a SB Die To Size 556 Brass?

I have been wrestling with why LC 556 brass just does not consistently fit in my case gauge or chamber as easily as other manufacturers.

The fully resized and cut down cases mic fine in the neck...

I wonder how bad the pull marks are.

I should try some of the 147s I have with my powder to see if I can get them to cycle subsonically.

I have had good luck with 175 SMKs and around 9.5 grains of H110.

I have had 100 reliable cycling in my AR and it is accurate out to 300 yards.

I have a 1x8 so I don't have first hand experiences with a 1x10 but I would say that stabilizing a 200 grain BTHP in a 1x10 twist at SS velocities is not guranteed or even expected.

Why Not Use 175 BTHPs?

I have been playing with varying bullet weights in my 10.5" 300/221 AR and I have been having decent luck using 175s in SS loads.

How come more people are not using 175s?

Is it because they...

How many shots in your groupings?

Any pics of targets?

I am interested in your load data as well since they seem to be so inconsistent for me and others.
