55gr bulk ammo that doesn't suck?

Ok, so the 1.5 MOA group you mention above was a 10rd group?

Yes, off the bench with sandbags front and back, it was a calm day. Low humidity in the low 80's.

I shot a couple of groups in that range and a couple just a hair larger, 1.75 MOA.

I will check zero by shooting only 5 round groups to verify that my sights are still on with the load it's zeroed with.

If going with another load I with zero, then fire a 10 round group if it's just a standard rifle/carbine or a 20 round group if it's a match or precision rifle.

Yes gun will be my "SPR" Build that has proven to float around 1-1.25" with my 55 Z-Max reloads. It may be too much to ask but I'm hoping to find a budget load that will stay under 3-4" at 250yards. I'll post up results next week.

I don't think any budget load will be able to produce sub inch groups at 250 yards, I would be very happy to get a 3/4" group at 250 with the premium 77 grainers that are expensive.

I'm hoping for sub inch groups at 100 yards. 3-4" is what I'm hoping for at 250.

Oh lol gotchya I read that wrong. If there is a cheap submoa bullet I would love to find it, but it will depend on your rifle. I have a rem 700 adl in .223 that groups about an inch and a half at 200 yards with cheap ammo (it was 55 too since it's a 1:12 twist)

PMC Xtac and bronze shoot very well through my 16 and 18 inch Noveske barreled rifles. 1-1.5 from a rest or bipod were a normal occurrence.

75gr hpbt hornady bullets around 23gr IMR 8208 thrown from a Redding powder throw loads very fast even with a single stage press using the powder throw. If your still wanting loaded ammo after trying that use Black Hills it's very good.

you know the MEN ammo is pretty good bulk stuff. Mark and I shot a few boxes, and many other folks as well. I shoot a lot of their 9mm and consider it top of line for bulk ammo.

+1 Great stuff
