Over a couple of days time, about 200 9mm and 200 .38 Spl.
What powder was he using? Just curious. I load .223/5.56 for the AR but may build a varmint rifle soon.I didn't load anything, but helped a new handloader today and over the past weeks. He is loading .223 to be shot out of a Rem 700 Varmint. With factory budget ammo the rifle shoots about 1" 5 five shot at 100 yards. I gave him a few recipes to try and instructions on working up loads through powder charge weights and different seating depths. It didn't take long for him to get groups under 3/4", but he wasn't satisfied. He was using mixed brass. Last night, I told him to sort by headstamps and then weigh the cases and toss aside any that appeared much heavier or lighter. He did and went back through charge weight testing. This afternoon he shot and seemed to find a load that would consistently shoot about 1/2"
