65 grain GameKing .223 AR ?

I think that 2520 is going to outperform my current load with varget. Soon as I get time without the wind whipping I'll find out.
 
I know this is an old thread. but my new favorite powder for my AR15 is AA2520. I taken to slinging heavy metal at critters now. 75 grain Hornady BTHP over 25.2 grains of AA2520 is may new favorite coyote load. If I'm hunting pigs I swap in the 75g grain Swift Scirroco II over the same load.
 
I am using the 65 sgk with 24 grs ot Ramshot Xterminator . You might try a mag primer with your Varget before you change powders. sometimes it is something simple.
 
When I started looking for a load for that bullet I tried 25.5 gr. of TAC (sierra's suggested hunting load) and it shot so well I did not even try anything else! Give it a shot
 
My choice is 24grs of Xterminator . Great stuff .l'm loading for 1 in 9 mini14 and handyrifle.

This is my go to bullet for yotes , deer , etc.

H4895 at 25.5gr and 2.225oal is what my rifle likes with this bullet.

Going to be using the 65gr Gameking on a Wyo Antelope here in a couple weeks. I'll find this thread and post results.
