Thanks to all. I have the itch to change the stock on this thing but at the rate its going I think I will just leave it until it comes up short on me.
Re: What to think of a 223 in a 20" 1:9 Twist
Just had my SPS tactical out to try the 75gr AMAXs and it was a no go as well. 1:9 twists just don;t cut it for them while the 75gr BTHPs do just fine. I'm planning on using them for the 1k line sometime soon. Heard somewhere that the AMAXs in 9...
Re: Ohio Long Range Plate Matches
Any of you guys going to the Rayners match on the 28th? I'm a newbie wanting to go for the first time after I talked to Tom over at TVP. The gear he told me to buy is on the way and now I'm all anxious to get out there.
Re: Varget for AR-15 .223/5.56

Oh, sorry about the "~" mixup. and I found a program called OnTarget at 6mmbr.net. Seems easy enough to use.
Went to the range today, after meticulously researching how to build up a load for my only centerfire bolt rifle. Great day for shooting! ~54 degrees, slight wind at times but not an issue after dialing 2 clicks right windage. So, here are my groups!
0.656"
1.173"
1.222"
0.737"

Re: 223 Rem 75gr Amax loads
I use a 75gr HDY HPBT over 24.1gr Varget in my sps tactical. Shoots .5 MOA at my 200yf zero if I do my part. Give that a shot with a ladder test.
I tried the AMAX 75's and they have too slender an ogive top work with that twist rate.
Re: 40 S&W Super Powder?
I'll take that powder if you dont want it. I have wanted to use some of that but couldn't find any locally.( College student= too broke for HAZMAT fees)
