[QUOTE="Kansaswoodguy, post: 1538477, member: 83267"] Mach 1 is correct. You might be able to run 75-77gr bullets with a 1-9 twist I have two 1-9 one gun with 20" will stabilize them and the 16" will not. I would think you could get the 69-70gr to stabilize no problem. I shoot thousands of the 75gr Hornady match over IMR 8208 XBR powder. I like Lake City brass I buy it by the thousand processed with the primer pockets swedged to remove the military primer crimp. 223 Rem and 5.56 NATO are the same brass technically 5.56 guns can be loaded to a higher pressure in my experience that however is academic BS. I have yet to see a confirmed 223 Rem gun blowing up because of a 5.56 NATO round was used. [URL]https://brassbombers.com/223-556_c2.htm[/URL] [/QUOTE]
