Hey all newbie here I've been lurking for awhile and decided to join. I'm currently working on load development for my space force build which has an 12" faxon with JP bolt. I'm using 123 ELD's with CFE223 and Hornady case. I hope I'm staying in the spirit of the thread here and giving some data for everybody. I haven't shot for groups yet this was a just a powder charge test to low ES and SD's. The next test will be seating depth and for groups.
