God speed, my friend. Your Savior and crown awaits you.
This is the first test using SR 4759 in my SLYM 223.
H&R SLYM 223
LYMAN 225415
GRAPHLOX
1/2" X 1" X 3/8" LOFT DACRON
SR 4759
SMALL MAGNUM RIFLE PRIMERS
5 SHOTS PER GROUP, 50 YDS.
83862
You are correct, Sir. The manuals mention this powder is best ignited with magnum primers, which I did use. However, I did have trace amounts of unburnt powder after each shot.
I ran a test to determine if using dacron as a powder locator would affect accuracy in minimal weight pistol powder charges in 223 Remington cartridges.
Please see my report on my site.
DACRON...
I agree, Larry. However, at the rate I'm testing, I'd be going through a lot of primers if I went to even 7 shot groups. I cut my group shot count to 5 to economize.
I start by shooting 5 shots...
Frank, yes, 223. Primers are CCI.
Rick, yes sir, can't lock anything down until you've been through every possible variable.
Testing continues.....
Yesterday, I discovered I had an unopened pound of SR 4759. I looked it up and found it could be used for reduced loads in the 223. I ran a test to see just how low I could load it. I located the...
In my last report, I was not able to produce any acceptable groups in the SLYM with Bullseye or Unique. I ran a primer test to see if that made any difference. It most certainly did and I was...
Between life, weather and 'honey dos', sometimes it's a while between posting of results.
I'll get the results of the next test published as soon as I can. Be patient with me, I'm workin' on it. ...
I shot a six batch test today with the new H&R 223 SLYM. If not for the ever present flier, there were a coupla' nice groups.
Lyman 225415 & Bullseye
Best group- 3.0 grs., 0.755"...
On 11 SEP, I filed a range report on my H&R 223. I have given that rifle to my nephew in SC to keep for my grandnephew to grow into.
Since then, I have purchased a H&R Super Light Youth model...
All these results are preliminary. Tests with 3 shots of .2 grain increment increases are shot again with 5 shots of .1 gr. increment increases on both sides of the best results in the first test....
I finally got to shoot some experimental stuff today.
Here's the criteria:
H&R 223, 1:9 BARREL
NOE 225 60 RN BULLET
GRAPHLOX LUBE
UNIQUE
SMALL RIFLE PRIMERS.
3 SHOTS PER CHARGE
50 YARDS.
Oh, Lord, not that again.
I'm gonna call you out like I did the last half dozen or so to make this claim. Show me documented evidence.

Yeah, John, 820 works well when you put enough in the case to make it burn. I was hoping to find a low velocity load with it. Alas, it is not to be with 820.
