Hi folks,
In my quest to develop a "suite" of loads for my 1:9 twist 223 Rem bolt action, I am looking for a longer range target load and a varmint load.
I was reading around the internet (always a dangerous idea) and I wondered if I could use the same bullet for both?
So I have 2 questions:
1) Has anyone used the 60gr Sierra TMK for varmints and how's you find it?
2) Has anyone used the 60gr Nosler Varmint Ballistic tips for longer range shooting?
Follow up question: Does anyone have any other suggestions?
My rifle is a CZ527 and handles 5.56 NATO pressues fine so I would think I would use Ramshot TAC or Exterminator so should be able to run them ~3,100 out of the 22" bbl.
ATB,
Scrummy
