Reloading .223/5.56 Hornady 73g ELDM W/ CFE223

Welcome back to Cloninger’s Garage. This video will be about reloading the .223/5.56. I will be using Hornady 73g ELDM bullets on top of CFE223 powder; starting with 26g then 26.5g and finally 27g. I will be looking at velocities out of this load. I hope to reach 2800 fps out of my Tikka t3x 22.5” barrel.
*Please be advised that the velocities are not correct due to improper placement of the chronograph. I got a new chronograph in order to present more accurate results.*
Actual FPS for Hornady 73g ELDM over 25g CFE 223 was avg. of 2809. *taken with new Garmin Xero C1 Pro*
Loaded up 100 Hornady 73g ELDM over 26g CFE 223 and got an average of 2978 for 49 shots. (Garmin Xero C1 Pro) Very good groups, but did not get targets due to it being a public range.
