Believe what you want, but that sure hasn't been my experience. One of the most accurate 223 loads I use is the 50gr SP varmint bullets from Midsouth, in a 1:8 barrel.

It's not 1985 any more, we have better bullets now.


In a Bench Rifle, yes, but in an AR, it's not enough to matter.

You didn't use logic or reason to get into this opinion, I cannot use logic or reason to get you out of it.
