    Looks about right to me. Nosler says 25 max, hornady says 23.2 max. If you look under 5.56 it will give you higher charges, if that’s what you are shooting them out of?

    It also makes a difference if it’s a bolt gun or AR. The load data for your AR may not be good if he is shooting a .223 bolt action.

    Me to Cody, but for Speer gold dots it lists low. This is why I asked.
