I've been reloading over a year now, but I just now got a scope mounted on my AR15 to do a little accuracy testing.
Pulled 55gr M193 purchased from RMR about a year ago WC844 CCI Small rifle Mixed cases Only had time for two quick ten shot groups, could only get out to about 85 yards at the range I had available. I was only landing on getting my scope sighted in to make things easier when I get to a better range and bust out the match bullets. 24.2gr load: 1.67" 24.7gr load: 1.62" Rifle is a bushmaster 16" 1:9" HBAR carbine. Simmons 44mag 4-12 scope in a Burris PEPR. I'm pretty pleased with those groups from the surplus bullets, especially considering that my rest wasnt very solid, there was still some human element involved. Also, that scope is also pretty darn good for the price. I've got some 68 gr hornady bullets loaded up too, just waiting to get to a better range. |
