[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 229118, member: 2736"] Trap The 223 WSSM is a lot faster (WSSM 55gr @ 3850ft/sec,223 rem 55gr @3240) Barnes and berger make 70 to 77gr bullets that should work for deer size game. but they will require a 1 in 11 twist or faster to be accurate. You should be able to get 3200 to 3400ft/sec from these bullets. They appear to be very accurate ,but barrel life is expected to be very short. I am building one for the 38gr and 40gr bullet that should reach 4500ft/sec and will report findings when complete. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
