Getting a new 5R gen2.
Assuming 1:11-1/4 twist, have you used IMI 175 and if so please share.

Well here is one review that includes the 175 Razo Core.  Didn't seem to pleased with it. However he was using a 1:12 twist

Mine seems to like it.  Granted, this is only a 3 shot group @ 100, but POI seemed consistent out to 550 which is the longest target I had. Does seem a bit "hot", but didnt chrono with my rifle yet.

Man nobody could reply?

Well 1:11 ain’t that fast but 175 ain’t that heavy. I would expect results just like what you posted. This 5R’s have been pretty stellar barrels for everyone I’ve ever heard of.

That ammo is very inconsistent at range, it fell apart for us at 700 yards with 3 custom built guns and one FN SPR. It was pointless to shoot any further, it’s fine for medium distance and in.
