Berger 73 Grain

Never used the 73 grain bergers but I shoot the 75 grain Amax out of my 223AI and they shoot great. I've shot those out to 900 yards on metal gongs and they do great out of my rig.

The Berger 73 is my go-to bullet for a mag length load, and they have always shot very well.
They shot great out of my 1 in 9 tube on my ar-15.They used to be called a length tolerant bullet.You can seat them to fit an ar mag and even though they take a big jump,they shoot very accurately.

My OAL for my 75s are 2.485. I run them jammed in my 223AI down a 1 in 9 twist barrel. Being an ackley I can't run it as a repeater so fitting in a mag was my last worry.

The 73 berger will be a challenge at 600 yds. in windy conditions. 80gr. bullets loaded close to the lands would be much better.
