The heaviest I've tried in my 1-8 223 AI is the 82 gr. Berger.











100 yds. off the bench at the Pearland shooter's club. Spare parts rifle, 223 AI.









Best,

Of various.224" projectiles there are probably a million+ 73gr to 80gr projectiles fired thru 1:7"/1:8" twist Bbl'd mouse gun(AR-15) service rifles in NRA OTC & CMP EIC competitions per year in the USA.


Keep'em in the X ring,
