I had some success with CFE 223 in the past but had some pressure issues. I decided to give it a go again since rebarreling my gun and found one hell of a load that should be a solid 1000 yard shooter.

168 gr ELD Match (group was actually shot with AMAX but should shoot the same)
46.5 gr CFE 223
Norma brass
CCI 200 primers
2.870” OAL
Group measured .400” which equates to a .092” group (.091 moa). Group averaged 2728 fps with a SD of 6 fps.
Rifle is a Rem. 700p with a 24” 5r, 1-11.25” barrel and Surefire SOCOM 7.62 mini suppressor in an XLR chassis. Shot off a bipod with a rear bag.
