Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Bottomlime...Which .223 ammo for defense & which for target?
Posted: 10/17/2002 6:29:26 PM EDT
Just wondering which .223 ammo everyone feels is best "overall" for defense and which is overall best for target practice?  I'm speaking of commercially available.  Thanks in advance for your input.

What barrel length and twist rate are we talking about?

You might want to look at the ammo faq too.
