[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 1348620, member: 25383"] most .222 Remingtons came with a 1:14 twist barrel. That's good for a B.C. of .26 at the most. Yet the 53 grain Vmax is .29. I had trouble with 52 and 53 grain match bullets from Sierra in the .222. Yet the 55 grain Vmax shot very well. Like the .223, the round has always shot best with the bullet seated within .005" of the lands, if not touching the lands. Look for a bottle of BLC2, and shoot bug holes. gary [/QUOTE]
