.223 AI

[Seed tick]

Is the .223 AI any better at resisting wind drift then the .223? Any less impacted by the wind is what I am asking.

Punch in some numbers and there's your answer. I like the "Trajectory simplified" option best. Short answer is a bullet going faster drifts less in the wind. Maybe 0.1 mil less drift at 1000 yards in 10mph wind for every 80fps increase in speed.

I did not know that. I need another rifle like a hole in the head but likes the thoughts of a .223 AI. Thanks

There is no downside to the 223AI,It does everything a little better the an 223.I have a couple of them and just love em.

So the performance at 1000 is acceptable? What bullet weight are you using?

I have thought about an AI as well, do you have feeding issues?

Travis Stevens at TS Customs built mine and there are no problems at all.
