Load data for Sierra 60g HP with RL15

[ScottNC]

Hey guys,

I have a bunch of .223 60g Sierra HP laying around, and was wondering if anyone has ever shot this bullet with good accuracy from an AR-15 platform using RL15,or Varget). I am thinking of using it for the short line. Problem is, I cant find any load data for this bullet and RL15. Sierra for some reason omitted this powder from their load data sheet.

Is this powder appropriate for the 60g, or is the bullet too light? I've noticed that RL15 doesn't show up in any Sierra load data until you hit the heavier bullets for .223.

Any info and/or load data for this bullet/powder combo would be greatly appreciated.

Great board btw. I have learned alot here.

I just use data for 69 gr m.kings, they shoot real well.

I'd start at 24.5gr and work towards 26gr of rl15, my white oak precision left hand upper ar15 just drills tiny little knot holes with the 60's at 200yds very very accurate bullet I shoot 52gr's with 26gr of rl15.
we use a golf tee to mark holes at 200 slow prone, I hit the tee 11 times and drove it through the target twice with rl15 and 60gr hp's in a 20 round string
