3175darren 1,100 Posted August 8, 2017 Report Share Posted August 8, 2017 (edited) Well after a few months of threatening to do it, I did finally get around to trying it, I decided to try 35 grn homeloads in the 223 and in truth I am impressed, bare in mind that I have the photon 6.5 night vision on, and I find it tricky to zero, in daylight, if any body has any tips on that I would love to hear them, anyway 23 grns of reloaded 7 and a 35 grn vmax head and got this, First three rounds 100 yds http://i1114.photobucket.com/albums/k534/Darrenj8/735A5070-90BE-429B-89BA-87357911A67B_zpsgy6o7hjq.jpg A further 5 rounds http://i1114.photobucket.com/albums/k534/Darrenj8/735A5070-90BE-429B-89BA-87357911A67B_zpsgy6o7hjq.jpg All in all I thought was really good well worth a try, lightning fast round, has anybody else tried them, Edited August 8, 2017 by 3175darren 1 Quote Link to post

Elliott 436 Posted August 8, 2017 Report Share Posted August 8, 2017 Curious to see these photos. If you managed to get them stabilised they'll be fine out to 200 yards, but I bet they'd struggle in any kind of wind. It's the same story in the 22 Hornet, but you've got the velocity advantage with the 223. 40gr V-Max or Nosler's would be a much better choice and they wouldn't drop much more at all.

I have no idea why the photos won't work first time I have had problems with them,I have tried the 40 grn vmax and hollow points, I couldn't resist trying 35 grn in the 223, I load 35 grn for the 22 hornet, so had all the gear on hand, Quote Link to post
