It’s not amazing but at least I know the rifle isn’t sick. I’ll look around for some 155 Lapuas or something else that strikes my fancy for bullets. I’m cheap with the ARs. I’d like to shoot a sorta cheap bullet I can load without feeling pinched too much.

I ran the load over the chrono and it went 2627 AVG of 3 shots. Seems about right for an 18” gun. Not sure what else would smoke them out any faster.
