    Realistically I currently own so many .223's, I can't even be bothered handloading anymore. Luckily, the Belmont 55gr SP bulk ammo works well as a do all load, and it is cheap.
    I was aware and told the gamekings were the go way back. But I couldn't get them to shoot as good as other projectiles in any of my 223's. I have no idea why.

    Since I have gone to the sciroccos I have had a great run.
    They're friggen pricey but work well on medium sized reds. I have taken 2 or 3 mature bull Thar in the body at average ranges with them as well.
