I would prefer a 55g cartridge.

I want to hold eveything constant and compare the target groups against some benchrest shooting I recently did, in which I used bulk Freedom reload 55g.

Thanks

I've been researching for month before I even bought my AR and I see the name Black Hills keep coming up. I think I will buy a few boxes for sighting in my new optics and for competitions.

Black Hills makes great ammo. I've had good accuracy with Fiocchi 50 gr V-Max .223. It's not expensive.

There have been reports of great accuracy from the Gecco ammo (SGAmmo and other places).  And its is pretty inexpensive, too.  I have some on the way for testing.

GECO 55gr fmj and Fed.50gr Tipped Varmint for 100 yd range shooting, Is hands down the most accurate for your money. ( PSA has he Fed. and SGAmmo for the GECO )

I will add, I seriously doubt the GECO fmj acts like a fragmenting M193 bullet.... probably much like the Swiss 5.56 surplus from years ago... very accurate, but no fragmenting. ( that bullet was designed to be more humane )

So range use only for me.

This was from a few weeks ago.

15rds GECO, Scoped 20" SS CHF FF from PSA.... I could tell those three on the left were going to be off from my own fault. Pulled the trigger at the wrong moment.

Federal or Hornady match

+1 on the Fiocchi V-Max.  If you're looing for 55 grain, I've had good results with Fiocchi 55 grain FMJ and the IMI M193

every firearm has it's own likes and dislikes..

some of mine have never seen a factory round.
