[QUOTE="del2les, post: 2975016, member: 9299"] A fast twist 223/5.56. Given I own 4 of these with 3 throated for the longer vld heavies, they are excellent out to 1,000yds for your given requirements. Brass is everywhere and cheap to free range pickups. Several powders work well, and a single pound can give 250-300 rounds, and SRP are fairly available. In my 26" versions, I can push 75gr bullets to 3,000fps with the slower powders like AA2520, and 2,900fps with several others. That's only about 300fps slower than several 22-250 loads with same bullets. [/QUOTE]
