[QUOTE="steelfingers, post: 3091023, member: 38658"] My colt shoots both 223 and 5.56 with 1/7 twist. To me, the 5.56 is much more accurate. Of the 223, all perform about the same. Got this from pew pew tactical Bullet weight Twist 40 gr 1:12 55 gr 1:9 62 gr 1:8 or 1:7 80 gr 1:7 With normal cartridges, you’re most likely to see 55 grain and 62 grain bullets. These are fine to shoot in 1:7 to 1:9 barrels and you probably won’t even notice a difference up to 300 yards. I like the 55 grain myself [/QUOTE]
