Anyone getting good accuracy out of TAC in 223? - AR15. COM So far, TAC has been pretty atrocious in my WOA 20" Predator barrel MP518 (Staball Match) routinely gets me under 1", but TAC has been more like 1 5-2 5" groups Before writing off TAC altogether: Is it more accurate at lower velocities? Most of my loads have been pretty hot, but maybe it likes running a little slower? I've tried 77 69 52 SMKs, 77gr Barnes Matchburners, 75gr Hornady BTHP, and
TAC load data for . 223 and 5. 56 from the source - AR15. COM My plinking load for 55 gr pills out of a 16" 1 in 7 twist is 25 3 gr TAC and a CCI 400 which chronos at 2700fps The initial Ramshot data placed this load as a MAX load which it obviously wasn't 25 3 grains is just barely above the start load in the new data but then again these new specs are for an M-193 power load not a plinking load
Any good load data for a 75 grain Hornday . 223? - AR15. COM I've found that Ramshot TAC powder works very well with Hornaday's bullets in my RRA, Wylde Chambered, 1:9 A-4 AR using a few 1 10ths grain under max charge in my 5 56 X 45 MM NATO level loads (where my rifle's accuracy node is) Surprisingly, my rifle likes Hornady and TAC better than Sierra and Varget Go figure
Powder recommendation for. 223 w 75 BTHP gt; Reloading gt; AR15. COM TAC has been a winner for me 62gr plinking loads at 24gr, 77gr Sierras+Swifts loaded to mag length with 24 5gr for accuracy, and numerous warm charges while experimenting with defensive bullets (Fusion, SMK TMK, TSX, TBBC) CCI 400s for 223 pressure, 450s or 41s for NATO pressure
Best powders for particular grain ranges of bullets in 223 556 - Your . . . I have used two powders for heavy bullets in 223 - TAC and Varget I only use 75 gr Hornady HPBT-M and Sierra 80 gr MatchKings Every time I test, Varget yields better accuracy than TAC (1 2 MOA vs 3 4 MOA at 200 yards) For me, in my measure, using my technique, Varget meters better than most extruded powders (SD = 0 1 gr) TAC throws with SD = 0 014 gr, however, this low dispersion of charge
300BLK: Barnes VOR-TX 110gr vs Hornady Black V-MAX 110gr - AR15. COM The GMX needs to much velocity for good expansion for the 300 BO I shoot only 110 V Max and Barnes 110 Tac Tx out of my 10 inch BO Am hearing good results about Speer 150 GD I prefer a lighter bullet though I emailed Speer to suggest making a 120 - 125 GD version for the BO Said they would pass along my suggestion to their R D department
Best powder for Mk262 clone recipes gt; Reloading gt; AR15. COM Isn't TAC the closest commercial available to the powder used in MK262? I worked up 77gr with TAC, 8208XBR, and 2000-MR, and settled on 24 3 gr TAC with a 77gr Sierra or Nosler at 2 255 and a Tula KVB556m primer TAC also gave me the highest velocities staying within published data
Ramshot Tac and . 223 gt; Reloading gt; AR15. COM I've used TAC, mostly with Sierra and Hornady bullets in the 65-75 grain range in Colt 1 in 7" barrels Flows well through a measure and generally provides good accuracy, but I've usually found H4895 will make at least slightly more accurate loads
