223 subsonic update

[Great-Kazoo]

Ran 10 of the SS 223's sat. Up side is they work, downside, wind out east was howling more than my ex after i stopped alimony
Anyway. they look like 1-150 yd plinkers, extremely quiet w/out a suppressor DEFINITELY an extremely low POI. We were out, hoping pd's would pop up , between the 40-50 mph wind and cloudy day, no luck.

I took kellytte's advice , used a tighter crimp, however my "tight" crimp was one turn more than normal for cannelured 55's. SO i'll readjust crimp, up the powder then to range, to see what true POI is vs a standard 55gr load.

My start load is 2.7gr Titegroup, 55gr FMJ-BT with cannelure, hornady, 2.20 OAL . Since this is a test, i felt start load small batch would determine if i wanted to use the ladder test. . No sense working up loads if there was no solid distance and targets to shoot.
I used my MVP 20" bolt action for testing.
The sub's will not cycle a semi so why bother? That's what my suppressors are for Then again why not do some single shot AR goodness? oh well next time.

The load range for Sub 223 using TG is 2.7 - 3.1
I'll do 2.9 & 3.0 loads to see difference. Since 3.0 is shy of MAX load, i'm going to keep crimp same as ones i previously loaded, then a tighter crimp on the 2.9 load.
