223... spitzer or ballistic tip ??
I will be developing loads for my 223, 1 in 12 twist, 22" barreled varmint rifle. Which would you use for coyotes? I have been mulling this over in my limited mind and thought i'd ask about your experiences. Which would have more penetration? Which would be more accurate? "inquiring mind wants to know" TIA

Short when you find out a good bullet pass it on to me. I am shooting a 22inch 1-12 twist also.

Not in a 12" twist 22-250. The 69grMK won't stabilize,in the 1-12"s I've tried them in.

They are a good bullet and work nicely. But only when stabilized.............
