    Savage detachable mag conversion kit

    Re: Savage detachable mag conversion kit Does the cdi work better than the factory. My factory 308 wouldn't feed well the rounds would pop up and cram into the back of the barrel. My 223 was fine until I rebarreled and now using 75gr bullets, was almost thinking of using a single follower...

    Do you need to clean a rifle every time you shoot?

    max bullet grain for 223?

    What is the max bullet grain for the 223 1 in 7" twist 26"barrel. I see berger makes all the way up to 105 grain. Wondering how big people have tried and had success with, and if there is much benefit over 75 grains. I only have 600 yards here at the house to shoot also.
