The Hornady 55 FMJBT is a very accurate bullet. I typically get 5 shots into 1.5 moa through my rack grade non-free float carbine.
Wrong...I just checked my Hornady loading manual..They list the 55gr Hornady FMJBT at 2.200 OAL.. I also use these and seat them to the top of the canunlure, and get a OAL of 2.215 +or- .002 ..I'd try some a box of factory ammo and see how it shoots with that..How many rounds has been through this rifle? I'd say if you get the same size groups with factory ammo as you do your loads then, maybe look at the barrel..
