    you shooting 77 gr noslers in your 223 with 7 twist??


    anybody using these in a 223 besides me? if so,what did you find to be an ideal
    OAL ? I shot some this morning over reloder 15 at the manual suggested length.
    Got around 2 1/2 inch group at 300..
    They are jumping quite a lot. I don't need to load to mag. length...Courious as to
    what length you all might be using and what accuracy you might might be getting.
    Using Rem brass and WSR primers..New brass..Thanks...Rizzo

    I shoot mine in a gas gun. shoots sub moa in 3 of my rifles.

    LC 09 brass
    77 nosler
    2.245"
    23.2gr 8208xbr
    wolf SRM (you can sub a cci 450)
    light crimp with Lee FCD

    it's my go to load. has shot well in every AR I've ran them through.

    on a side note my groups closed up going from 2.26 to 2.245" they jump just fine

    The 77's are rather short. Atmosphere plays a part, but they will typically stabilize in 2 different 9-twist rifles of mine.
    We can't tell you what your rifle likes, you gotta tell us.
    I'm a firm believer in the theory that if it bleeds, I can kill it.
