Just brought home a new Ruger AR-556 (8 inch twist) and curious about how good it is suppose to be and some starting loads. I have plenty of Varget and CFE223 plus Hodgdon 414 and H380 and H335 for powder. Bullets selections are Varmint Grenade 36 gr. -Sierra 50 gr. TNT - Nosler 40 - 50 - 55 gr. ballistic tip - Hornady 50 gr.V-MAX. Will be priming with CCI's in military brass. I have a Colt HBAR with a 7 inch twist that favors Nitemare 55 gr. HP pushed by 25 gr. of CFE223. Just throwing this out to get some ideas. Planning a prairie dog trip the last few days of May so have some time to "cook" up some loads.
