I am about to purchase some reloading bullets for .223 and I cant decide on moly or standard bullets. I will be loading either 69 or 75's. I would like to buy moly but I have been told that if you shoot moly through your barrel then that is all you can shoot accurately through it. Is this true?


Thanks
 
Re: .224 Moly or standard

You should stick with either moly or naked. If you shoot naked and then decide on moly you will want to get ALL copper out beforehand.
I like moly in stainless barrels because it makes cleaning so easy and I have never had any fouling issues and associated accuracy degradation.
You'd be surprised at the opinions some folks have about moly though.
Moly at home is easy and very cheap BTW.
