Here's what the Hornady manual says but you should verify this before you use this data.
If you send me you email address I'll send you a screen shot from the Hornady book. I can't send it via PM.
Item No. 2267
C.O.L. 2.200"
CFE 223
2800 fps 24.8gr, 2900 fps 25.5gr, 3000 fps 26.1, 3100 fps 26.7gr, 3200 fps 27.4gr.
25gr is a good amount if you are loading on a progressive for plinking ammo. You don't want to be too aggressive if you are relying on just a powder drop. If you are weighing each charge, then you should work up a load and see what shoots the best.
