muledeerarea33? Report post Posted October 11, 2006 I am wanting to reload rounds for my 223 wssm I was wondering if anyone has loaded this round before and if so what they had good results with. I have the dies but dont really know what else I am going to need. any help would be greatly appreciated thanks Daniel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted October 11, 2006 well, you need a press, a scale, primers, brass, bullets, powder, a reloading book, a chamfer, a funnel, a tray...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coueshunter84 Report post Posted October 11, 2006 Start with the book, and work your way out from there. That round is relatively new so look around for a book with the most options in it. Good luck, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rugerman Report post Posted October 12, 2006 I read that IMR4350 is goodstuff for the 223wssm. Some loads are posted at wssmzone.com Goodluck and let me know if you find a good one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BowNut Report post Posted October 12, 2006 Like coueshunter84 said start with a book. Buy the one for the brand or books for the brands of bullet you want to shoot. Most if not all will take you through it step by step. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muledeerarea33? Report post Posted October 12, 2006 I have been looking on the wssmzone and found some good stuff. I have my reloading supplies and my lyman book doesnt have the wssm. I guess my question was too broad. what I was wondering is if anyone has reloaded any and what they were using. thanks for your replies. OH and terry the 223wssm kicks the butt of the 25-06 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
youngbuck Report post Posted October 16, 2006 I have and reload a 223 wssm right now i'm getting good groups w/ i think 41g of varget and a 55g v-max. They are almost all touching @ 100 untill my barrell gets too hot usually around 5 or 6 consecutive shots. From what i remember these loads aren't too hot compared to some of the others, not too sure im not around my books. I'm sure you could load hotter than that but for me, that load shoots really well. Ive never loaded any heavier bullets for anything bigger than yotes. The nosler and hornandy books have good info on the wssm's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
