[QUOTE="trebark, post: 227111, member: 19172"] Micheal: If I were you I would not exceed a 55grain bullet with your 12 twist barrel. I have a Rem700 in 223 it shoots 55grain factory hollow-points nicely. Recently while at the rifle range there was another guy there with a Rem 223. He could not get his gun on the paper at 300 yards. He saw that I was having good success and he brought his rifle and ammo over to me and asked me to give it a try (to see if the problem was him rather than his equipment). My results with his rifle and ammo were the same. Upon closer inspection, I found his ammo was 77grain match bullets. I tried his ammo in my rifle and got the same results - couldn't hit the paper. Tried my ammo (55grain) in his rifle and it shot fine. Long way to say...12 twist barrel....55grain max bullet weight. [/QUOTE]
