[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 4005959, member: 5412"] Yep, that 1:12 barrel doesn't like heavies. .55 grain and lighter. During the Obama shortage when ammo and reloading components were unavailable or insanely priced, I found two or three boxes of Federal .223 with I think 45 grain bullets in a small gunshop that was trying to hold prices down. Just out of curiosity, where did you find the barrel with a 1:12 twist? I'd like to find one to build an upper with that twist to shoot the light bullets now that reloading supplies are coming back on line. Edit: I know you can go down to .40 grain bullets from Hornady.
