    Range Report What to think of a 223 in a 20" 1:9 Twist

    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: Varget for AR-15 .223/5.56 I'm using a 75 gr BTHP, 24.1g Varget, 2.262" OAL, CCI 400 primers. Great load. Varget does seem to shine when placed under heavier bullets though. YMMV -Perf

    Range Report Stock SPS Tact .223 w/ 75gr HPBT Success!!

    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" All shot...

    223 Rem 75gr Amax loads

    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.
