    Any loads for WC820 in 223?

    I ordered 8lbs of wc820 from patsreloading today and I am looking for loads people have used with success. I have a mini-14 and an NEF single shot. (1:9 twist and 1:12 respectively)
    I have seen some loads, such as this:

    http://www.castpics.net/RandD/load_data/223/223_rem.htm

    I am loading Saeco 60 gr. SPGC (lino) with Rooster labs hvr sized .225.
    Any info is helpful.
    Thanks.

    ..............LeeW, that info was from me about 7 years ago. The rifle was a Savage M112, 26" bbl with a 12" twist. I'd just use your WC820 and start at the start loads shown and go from there. Groups were very good. I just checked my FotoTime place and don't have any of those groups uploaded.
