Load data for 77 TMK in 223

[Ranger 692]

25 gr LVR in Norma brass 77 TMK coal 2.270. 2750 out of a 16” Tikka lite barrel, right at 1 MOA

23.5 grains on XBR gives me 2765 fps out of my 18 inch Tikka.

For those using the 73 eldm for practice are you using the same load data from the 77tmk and just pressing the 73 in?

Man, I wish I had sourced H4895 sooner after struggling with the so-called magic unicorn dust 8208 XBR...

I’m getting 2715 same charge. What primer, brass, OAL?

For practice I use Varget under the 73 ELDM. Cheaper and shoots a little more accurately.

73 ELDM over 23.5 of varget - 2682fps
77 TMK over 23.5 of XBR - 2757fps
