A 55 gr is a 55 gr for the charge. Particular bullets may perform differently and you can tweak up or down, but I never pay much mind to brand, only design and weight.

Well I have a new 223 bolt gun coming my way and I expect to be testing some new 22cal bullets made from 22lr brass. Gun is a Savage 12BVSS 223rem and was wondering what loads you guys have had best luck with these bullets?
Gun has a 26' barrel! with 1-9 twist. I expect to start with bullets in the 55-65 grain range.
Anyone actually experienced decrease in accuracy when we push these bullets too fast? We have all heard about this so called 3200FPS limit with bullets made from the 22LR brass I'm but looking for some actual first hand load data.
Think I have read good things about Varget?? maybe like 25 grains or so? Anyone else have any first hand info? I have the 'one book' reloading manual for the 223 rem so I can look up loads all day long but I'm looking for any recamendations, primer choice too if you care to share.
Thanks
