We have 2 24" .20 tac Dtechs that we have been trying to work up some good loads for a 40gr bullet, I have used Benchmark, Varget, 10X, X-terminater etc. All produce good accurate loads but I'm unable to get any decent velocity out of the loads before showing signs of pressure. Most of the loads are around 3600 or so before pressure signs become apparent. When I first tested it I was shooting 25 grs of Benchmark and the Chrony was showing 4100 fps and the brass was showing excessive presure markings. After duplicating the load another day I was getting about 3600 and still excessive pressure signs so the Chrony definately wasn't right on the first day. It seems that any published Max load is way too hot for these guns. Anybody able to achieve velocites above 3700? I would like to shoot somewhere between 3700 and 3800 if possible or is this asking too much from this cartridge out of a AR? Thanks for any help.
