I've tried a variety of bullets for my both of my 16" 1x9 barrels. Standard 55FMJ's as well as 62Gr ss109's shoot well for me. 69 gr HPBT match is the heaviest that I've been able to shoot well. The 75 and 77gr HPBT match bullets out htere seem like they are just a bit too long, as my groups started opening back up compared to the 69's during load development.
It is funny. PMC 55 gr shoots the best groups so far for me. Out performed 55 gr WWB and 55 gr Remington Core LoktThis matches my experience as well. 55 & 62 no problem. 75 gets sloppy. It is funny when PMC 55 outshoots 75 grain match at 100 yards...
I have a Colt, w/ Match 20" barrel, and I shoot at 200 yds, at Crosley, and did one long range match, a couple years ago, at Wildcat??? near Lafayette... shot 80%, with my reloads...Anyone have experience shooting past 100 yards. I'm currently limited to 100 yards at my club (about to change in 2011)?
