Any love for the Hornady .224, 68 grain HPBT Match. I have a Savage 12-BVSS which uses a 9T. These will be paper punchers. Thanks guys.

My Ruger Predator. 223 with an 8T loves them. They are the heaviest bullet I've tried so far and easily shoot into .5" with both AA2200 and CFE223. Not a lot of time spent with them so far and I am limited to the maximum 2.24" or so COAL due to the AR style magazine.
 
Fine. a few thou into the lands worked for me, with Varget, but you may do better with 69g Lapua.
 
I tried out some in an ar with 9 twist. With only a 3 power scope i can shoot a 3/4 group at 100 yards. I think thats pretty good with that power scope. My other ar i stepped up to 75gr bthp. Its an 8 twist. Both loads was with cfe223
