welshdragon 6 Posted November 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 12 Euro Federal hollow point stuff for me (£8.60) for a box of 20 .223 rounds, works well in my rifle. Thats a good price for that stuff, costs me about £60 per 100. I'm using Wolf 55gHP at the moment and whilst I accept and agree grouping is about 1" worse with this stuff at 200yards it costs me £18 per 100! Barnaul 62gFMJ is about an inch off at 200yards as well but that costs me £14-£16 per 100. Wolf is an American company but both their ammo and Barnaul are made in the same factory in Russia, both are true .223REM as well, and not 5.56 military. Fortunately they both still shoot well for me, I won an internal shooting club competition at Bisley last time out with the Barnaul, everyone else was using quality expensive ammo!!! One of the reasons why, at that price, I simply can't be bothered with reloading! Deker hi Deker £14-£16 per100 thats one hell of a saving Quote Link to post
