Posted: 2/28/2001 6:40:25 AM EDT
Have any of you noticed poor accuracy from 1 in 7 barrels using 55 grain ammo? I know all baout what weights to use with what twists.
I would like to know what are your user based experiences? I would like to see hopw they compare to mine.

You'll see the difference beyond 100yds. Mostly 55gr. ammo seems crappy in any AR barrel, because it's usually cheap FMJ that doesn't fully test the AR's abilities. I have had some military ball and cheap handloaded blasting ammo that was downright horrible (4-5" groups@100yds) and some that shot into about 1.5" at the same distance. Never much better than that with FMJ.
