My exact experience alsoMy savage axis with a 22 inch 9 twist barrel shot the 75 grain hornady BTHP bullets really well. The Berger 70 grain VLD's shot really well to. Didn't try anything heavier.
73 gr LTB's from Berger..Question for the 223 guru's out there.. whats the heaviest bullet i can use in a 9 twist 22 inch 223 barrel? Thanks
might have worked in yours, don't mean it will work in all.. just sayin'Some of the stuff I read on the internet had me questioning using the 75-77's in the 1/9 twist tube....not anymore.
Is yours an AR or a Bolt Gun? Who made the barrel?
I think your good to go. Out to 300 I can't tell the difference in the 69's and the 77's(group size). Past 300 I'd certainly give the 75 grain Hornady's or the 77 SMK's a shot.
