recipe needed for .223 IMR 8208XBR powder

ni hao

I am in need of a good load for the .223. Using a 55gr. bullet, IMR 8208XBR powder, and Wolf small rifle MAGNUM primers. I bought the magnum primers when nothing else was available. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

They show one load with a 55 gr bullet in a 223 using that powder.

Tons of listing discussing the loads and use if you google "imr 8208 xbr 223 load data"

Do what you normally do when working up a load.

I will tell you that I have a great load for my AR using that powder, but it is close to max. I worked up to it.

The best part is that it seems to be extremely insensitive to temperature....shooting to the same POI at 20 degrees as it does at 80 degrees.

Thanks guntech59. This is my favorite powder and I agree, it does as is advertised.
