Need accuracy load 14.5" .223

[Buzzsaw]

Have a new Seekins rifle ordered, 14.5" 1-8 twist Seekins Match barrel.

Any pet loads for a shorter barreled rifle? I've got lots of 69+77gr SMK's and 77gr Nosler comp bullets, plus lots of 55gr, 70gr. for my 20" 5R bolt gun. Most powders too.

Thanks

My 1:8 twist 16" Sabre Defense barrel does well with 68 Hornady BTHP, 69 SMK, and 77 SMK. The price on the Hornady in bulk is much better than Sierra so that is what I run. 8208 XBR, 2000 MR, and Varget are the powders that I have used. Just got some TAC and am going to try it next.

I guess the shorter barrel really doesn't matter
