JMO for me so please understand my thinking, if you gonna shoot long range use a suitable Cartiedge!

    I agree with Mark. For nearly two decades 223 has been one of my must have rounds, and I will forever have at least one firearm chambered for it. That said, in all those years I have never owned a 223 Bolt Gun. It’s always been an AR15 that I built, never bought. My top AR also has a 223 Wylde chamber, 1:8 twist. However, I certainly don’t blame shooters for using it in a 110. And yes, they will see the performance from it my AR’s may get close to, but never surpass. And that’s fine. Because that’s why I have my model 10 chambered in 260AI.

    26", 9 twist, and don't reload ?? Go to sgammo . com And get an ammo can of IMI Mod1 77gr Razor Core.
    These are loaded with Sierra Match Kings. Some time back, I tested these against the premium Black Hills,
    and they shot the same for 40% less money.....Get the IMI mil spec brown box and not the green and white
    box. Brown box, the brass is numbered in sequential order and the other is mixed. For what it's worth, there
    is also the 69 grain, but did not shoot as well.
