223 AR 68 BTHP H335 data?

[glock10mmman]

Anyone got any good data for this set up? H335, Hornady 68 grain BTHP. I'll be shooting them out of my 24" sabre upper.

My Hornady book is always on the low side, but I know I cant make the loads near as hot as I do for my bolt gun.

Thanks in advance.

Check Hodgdon's site, it's worked well for me. I fell within the recommended powder charge for 70's in my 223. I don't remember what it was though.

I tried H335 with 68s, but, settled on 25 grains of Varget because it was more accurate.

Ge-lock10,
Have you shot the 68's in it yet? If not see if you can get some Black hills match 68hpbt... I am fairly certain they are using the Hornady pills. These shoot great out of my Colt HBAR 24" x 1:9..... Like 3.5" at the 5OO. One of many projects still incomplete.... I want to crono them and try to match it with either 335 or Varget.
