.223 Starting point
Hi
Just about to pick up my super varmint in a .223 with a 1/12 twist going to shoot paper at 100meters , I'm going to use factory ammo , I know every barrel/gun is different but can anybody suggest a starting point -

1/12 will probably like 50-55 grain bullets.

Hi
Thanks for the reply , I contacted hornady and they advise 50gr or 55gr V-max , I've had no reply yet from Sierra -
I don't shoot factory ammo so I can't comment on factory offerings. As far as bullets, the 50 to 55 grain bullets have worked very well in all my 12″ twist 223's. The most accurate for me have been the Nosler BT's in 50 and 55 grains. Another excellent bullet is the Sierra 55 grain BTHP. Vmax's are also very good especially the 55 grain Vmax.
