I've had the same luck with this kind of load. I think your low vel is due to hornady manual being tested with a 20 or 24" barrel. If it'll kill paper or a man in an extream circumstance I think your fine.

Was going by hornady. Max charge for 556 is around 2800fps. No case stress and barely flattening out the primer.
Max load is 27.5

What's the proper way to swage a 556 or crimped 223? Primers are going in fine. Just want to make sure I'm doing it right.
Anyone got any good loads for cfe223 powder?
