I'm working up a new load for my AR and I think I'm in nearing the dangerzone because the load data for my combo is particularly conflicted. I haven't shot it yet, and my AR is pretty stout, but I'm worried.
Barrel: LMT 16inch chrome lined 1:7 twist
Chamber: NATO
Bullet: 55gr VMAX
Powder: WIN 748
Brass: LC 2011
Primer: CCI 400
OAL: 2.246 inches
Charge: 27.1-3 grains
My concern is nearing the 27gr mark with WIN 748. Some manuals say 27.8 is MAX and others say 26.5 is MAX.
Can anyone share any experiences with this situation or recommendations? Thanks, Alex
