Thread: Howa 223 not shooting well and my quest to fix it

Soo I finally got out to the range/farm paddock with a bench
I had some handloads i had cooked up with some 50gn sp sx hornady and cfe223
Accuracy improved a long way the rifle can now be called a consistent shooter Of arround the 1-1.1 inch 5 shot groups at 100m
It’s consistent that’s the main thing just gotta find a bullet it likes now

And im sure it will be a half inch gun like the rest

those spsx are SUPER soft....they used to do very nasty things to wallabies.

So im told
This rifle didn’t really like them though Shot them good enough to tell me ive fixed the issues
And its now just a matter of finding the right projectile/load��
