I am putting together a new 223 and am planning to use the new Accuracy International 223 mags. I bought a 6.5 twist BBl w/ the intention of loading the new 90 grain bullets.
Now that all of the parts are coming in I am naturally wondering where I screwed up.
I am wondering if w/ a Wylde (I think that's what he'll use) chamber will there be enough room for the 90 grain bullet loaded round in the magazine.
The cartridge length of the magazine is 2.55" basically 1/4" longer than an M4 magazine.
<span style="font-weight: bold">If you have worked with this combo or have experience with the 90s could you let me know if I'm gonna have enough room for powder?</span>
Thanks

If I remember right the 90 seats the same as the 77 in the shell, just longer out front. The Wylde chamber fits the 90 for single load in an AR, magazine limits length to 77's.
