FWIW,
might not be explosive for prairie dogs and stuff... but for hunting game animals..
people Always seem to overlook the tried and trued 75 grain BTHP from Hornady...
Do these shoot well in a 1:9 .223?
I've been debating whether it was worth holding out for a 1:8 gun, but I was thinking the 1:9 might work with the Hornady 75 bthp and the 77 SMK's since they are relatively short bullets. As I would mostly prefer to shoot slower loads. Still full power.
I referenced the 77SMK also because there's a couple of inexpensive factory loads that use these. I know the Hornady bullets are quite a bit less expensive to buy though.
