[QUOTE="Gene, post: 404263, member: 7402"] My .223 is a Savage LRPV which I shoot at 500 meters (about 550 yards) in factory class groundhog matches. It has a 1-7" twist and I only shoot moly Berger 80 gr. VLD's over 25.5 grains of Varget, MV around 2,650. I have had some great groups with this combination. BUT . . . .you really need to be able to read the wind very well, and of course, lighter bullets will increase this need.
