Good .223 loads for ruger mini 14 1-9 twist

[huntinglonewolf]

Looking for some load information for a ruger mini 14 1-9 twist barrel. Dosen't shoot 53 or 55 gr. bullets very well and would be using strickly for coyotes

Mine likes IMR 3031...24.0 grains but with 55 gr. v-max. Getting about 2950fps. with this load.
You may want to try a few heavier bullets and see what your mini likes. I put a barrel stabilizer
on mine and have been getting 1 MOA at 100 yards.

Thanks for the load. Will try it. I was using h335 powder but couldn't get any to shoot under 1 1/2" groups

60gr Sierra HP and about 25gr of Varget. Bugholes out of a good barrel.
