still fooling around with a 219 zipper...not much load data avaliable. What have yall been using in a 223 14" and what kinda performance do you get? Am looking at comparing what data i do have with what yall get and then possibley working up loads in similar powders I don't have data for...since they are so similar....let me know...

If you have access to the Lyman reloading manual #43, it has data for the Zipper. If you don't, send me an email at graycg@aol.com and I'll try to scan and email to you.

regards,
Graycg

PS data is for 4198, 3031, 4064, 4895, 4320, H380 and even H335

Zipper info is the second from the top under the ".224" heading.

Hey Kirk, sorry, haven't found time to touch my Zipper since we last talked...no excuses...days get shorter as you get older or something. I hope I told you before, my powder pick was IMR 4320 based solely on old rifle data. And, as you know, my result weren't that great. I'll just have to do better and report back later. GOOD SHOOTIN bro, Walt
