I bought some 40 grain Sierra HP's for my .223, but beings they weren't boat tail I find them EXTREMELY difficult to seat on my progressive press.


I've chamfered the hell out of the case neck, dabbled lube on the bullets, and they still are just a pain in the neck. I like their performance on praire dogs, I was going for a smokin fast round to go out to about 100 yards, maybe I'd try the V-Max and see if its a little longer and the boat tail will sit easier.
