34gr. Mid South/.223 mod 200 Stevens
popcornJust had a FUNTASTIC DAY with the std. Mod 200, .223, the 34gr Mid South HP, and 27 and 28 gr. of 2230-C. really great. Also ran great 52gr. Berger fbhp w/ 27gr. 2230-C. I would suggest you get these Mid South bullets while you can; comparatively cheap and deadly. Crying in your beer later don't count. BOOMroger

Good for you! Funtastic days are too few and far between. Sounds like this weather may permit a few for me soon. Midsouth says on order for the 34's and the 30 Bergers. I was at Walmart today and they were out of all handgun ammo. The other day they had quite a lot. Some guy bought 4 boxes of the 100 rd boxes to go with his buddies and shoot up that weekend. Everybody either decided to shoot or are buying all they can get. The clerk said they can't get any. Glad I make my own. Getting low on Lg. pistol primers though.

I have the same rifle and it too shows a preference for the Data powders - 2200, in this case.

Thanks for the skinny on the 34's. It's almost time begin the annual Gopher Jihad!
