I got a 223 that I bought the end of last winter.After I got it sighted in my first group was .26 with some reloads that worked well in a older bull handi I had.Haven't matched that but most everything was staying 1" and under.Had a lotta 2 in ragged hole but next one out a bit.(I don't think it's guns fault :))Didn't get to play with it much as farming started and it got put in safe.But she's back out and gonna get a workout this winter!

Is it bad form to ask what the load is?  I'm doing pretty well with mine with a 40 gr nosler bt over 27.5 grains of w748, but not down to a quarter inch yet!

Not bad form but to be honest with ya i'm not really sure what they was.Pretty sure they was either H335 at 26.5 or Accurate2230 at 27 or 27.5.Both woulda been 50gr moly v-max.We don't really pound paper like some on here just kinda in spurts (winter)Tried some H benchmark and it seemed to like it but haven't got to play much lately,hopefully after first of the year?Bought the old man (the other in "we")a lead sled for CHRISTmas so probably be some shootin goin on!

Mine likes 25.5 gr. of Winchester 748 topped off with a 52gr. Matchking by Sierra, use CCI mag. primers to set it off.
