    .223 - 5.56

    Thanks. I tested 26.5gr in LC233 brass with the 77TMK at 2.475in just for a quick pressure test to see if my burn rate matched my modified quick load data and I got 2990fps on my Garmin X1 which is about 75fps faster than 24.3 varget in the same 26in IBI barrel. Looking to get 2800-2850 out...

    Noveske barrel upgrade? Proof Research?

    Criterion are fine to be honest. Craddock RTR also a good choice.

    Not many heavy barrel 223’s anymore?

    Its a great choice. Factory threaded barrel. 2 stage trigger. Add in a KRG Bravo and you're set

    Not many heavy barrel 223’s anymore?

    My IBI 26in MTU in a ARC Nuke is my favorite gun to shoot and the one I use to train newbies.

    New Build: Custom Radian 22" Bartlein 6 ARC

    I haven’t tried TAC but it could work, Staball match too. They’re a bit on the faster side so probably be a better match with a shorter/lighter bullet or a mono.

    New Build: Custom Radian 22" Bartlein 6 ARC

    For speed ? CFE223, LVR and N540 For accuracy? Generally varget but it’ll cost you a good 100-150FPS

    StaBall Match Testing - 77gr Reloads, Chasing mk262

    26.5gr staball match, LC 223 brass (not 556), CCI 450, 77tmk at 2.475, ARC Nuke 26in -> 2990 FPS. No pressure at 44F outside air temp. QL shows that's a 61K PSI load.

    7 saum

    This might help you get started. QL shows bit more speed out of a 20in barrel with N560, both in the 162 and 175. Just for reference, QL shows 62.3K PSI at 60gr for N165 so it does sounds right that you'd get heavy bolt and ejector swipe.

    Good .223 DMR/MPVO Optic These Days?

    All your listed options are very decent. I run the 3-12 lrtsi on my 204Ruger coyote gun and the 2-12 on a short 300BLK The maven and the lrtsi a bit lengthy for a gas gun

    N560 will also do quite well especially out of a short barrel. If you’re coal limited to short action at 2.950 I would seriously consider the 162 ELDM. The 162 will come out faster, with less recoil and more optimized burn rate out of a 20in barrel by using a faster powder. The BCs are also...

    Dnt The one vs ares etr 4.5-30

    They're pretty close to be honest. I don't think the ARES are worth the extra 200$ I went with the DNT because I wanted the 35x at the top for my 550y KYL and it was a bit easier to spot the 223 impacts on the smaller targets than with my 5-25 Midas Tac

    SWFA 3-9x42 mil-quad

    Zero whatsoever and it’s been bounced around the ATV quite a bit. I bought it on clearance last year and it’s the MOA version and everything else I run is mil. I’d prefer FFP although it’s not a huge deal breaker for a hunting build.

    High IQ post. ^^^ Probably one of the reasons Trumps is negotiating tariffs for Canada and Mexico to force the manufacturing of raw goods back to the USA.

    NATO

    Britain has no tanks and no troops. Germany has de-industrialized themselves and shut down many nuclear plants. France is being led by an ex Roschild banker who was mkultraed by a 40 years old tranny teacher when he was 14. This so-called coalition of the willing is a total and utter paper...

    SWFA 3-9x42 mil-quad

    The Minox THLR also survived the drop test. I just got one for a very good price and will see how it does next fall. They’re massive tho. Pretty much as big as my DNT 7-35, just a bit lighter. Also got a Maven 1.2 on the list for my lightweight 7SAW, will replace a Leica amplus6 2.5-15.

    Zelensky showing no respect in Oval Office

    Globohomo always sends the strongest white Christians to die while they scheme to open the borders to low IQ foreigners that they can control. They did it in WWI They did it in WWII They did it in Vietnam They did it in the GWOT. Now they’re trying to do it in Europe. No more brother wars.

    SWFA 3-9x42 mil-quad

    The SWFA survives the drop test, not the Athlon. And I say that as someone who owns 6 athlon scopes.
