Have you guys had any luck with any certain weight of bullets or certain styles? I just test fired mine and did not find really good groups with the winchester white box ammo and some other 50 gr hollowpoints! Thanks for any help!

If you are talking about a 1/12 twist barrel this is pretty much going to limit you to about 60 grains bullets and down. I find that the Sierra 52 & 53 SMK shoot real good in just about any 224 caliber rifle of 1/9 to 1/12 twist. Just have to find the load that your rifle prefers.

Try 40 and 45 grain bullets (assuming you reload) with Varget, BLC-2, H335 and Benchmark powders.
