Hi All,
I have a bunch of 62gr Steel core projectiles that I have started loading for my AR.
I just wanted to see if anyone else out there has loads to compare?
I started with:
Mixed LC brass trimmed to 1.750
CCI#400 Small Rifle Primer
23.0gr H335
62gr FMJ-SC-BT projectile seated to 2.255"
I did use a Lee FCD.
These shot 2735 fps with standard deviation of 28 fps from my AR.
Cycles the action just fine. Grouped fairly well at 75yds, but i just want these for plinking anyways.
I think I am going to step it up to 23.5 and see how that works out as well.
Gun notes:
Rock River Arms 20" AR-15 Flattop. 5.56mm chamber. Chrome bore and chamber.
What is everyone (anyone?) else using for this projectile?
Thanks,
Steve
