[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 1288310, member: 22069"] The Hornady 68 BTHP and 75 BTHP are the same length, presumably made using the same jacket and different amounts of lead. Both will feed from the mag and work well with a 9 twist. I have had excellent results with these two bullets using LC brass, CCI 450's, and either IMR 8208XBR or AR-Comp. If you are shooting in a discipline that involves single feeding, rather than rapid fire stages, the 75 AMAX is worth a look. From a 9 twist, it won't give you much of a bc advantage, but I have found the AMAX to be unbelievably consistent. These especially work well in a 5.56 NATO chamber. Hornady 9th Edition load data is pretty good for this application. [/QUOTE]
