Upper here in the morning

[markpurifoy]

Well I get my new upper and dies in the morning. Want to shoot sub load. Need help on what to load up for first rounds.

What bullet weight are you wanting to use?

For my bolt action (18" barrel) my first loads were 8.5, then 8.0 grains of VV-N110 under a 240 SMK. The 8.5 load was right on. Start higher than you think you will need and work your way down. Depending on what powder you are using, it will probably be around 9 or 10 grains.

Going to use 223 brass. Like to use 200 plus weight bullets. Sub
