I swear i did a search!

Is Winchester USA223R3 62gr. a round for loading up on?  In today's market , at least.
-I have 16"/20" RRA, 1:9 twists
Is $216/1k out the door a price to jump all over?

Thanks in advance...

It would be the lower pressure rounds... being .223 and all. But if you want plinking ammo I don't see why not.

Have you shot this ammo in your weapon, and if so, did it fulfill your requirements?  It would not be a great choice for hunting, self defense or what you would call a GP round.  But it would be good for punching holes and having fun.  I wouldn't buy anything in bulk until I knew my rifle doesn't hate it.  Just my 2 cents.
