No Secrets here MSP  :D
The load goes as follows
40 gr hornady V-Max
cci 400 primer
20 grs of IMR 4198
new winchester brass

my c.o.l was longer than what my hornady reload book called for, but its where it needs to be.

Good group Norseman. These 223's are excellent shooters, and in my opinion one of the most accurate calibers in a Handi/Ultra.
