Thread: 223 advice

I'm getting a 223 barrel for my R93. It will mainly be used by my daughters for goats, deer etc.
I'm thinking a 55gr Barnes TTSX with either H335 or 2206H.
Anyone got any advice on these loads or another suitable. I don't know what the twist on the barrel is yet.

With mine they would only shoot with 2208. But I really wanted to use 2206.

I've got some 2208 so that would be good.

Have had some good loads with BM2 also, but 2208 is performing better than I can shoot

I have used BM2, BM1 and currently 2206H, I ran/run 25gr on all three powders and all three gave good velocity and good accuracy on Rabbits out to 470yrds. All projectiles ( V Max , Varmeggedon , Hornady SX varmint and softpoints ) were 55gr.
The Hornady 55gr soft point training ammo would be good from rabbits, goat and deer.

65gr Sierra using 24gr BM2.It flattens everything. Running this in T3. Run 55gr TSX in my mates Browning X Bolt using 25gr BM2.
