| so i ordered some tracer bullets just for fun and plinking, but i didnt realize how dirty they are. they also said 55gr but its more like 53gr. i planned on using my normal load rem brass, h335 and cci #41 for 55gr tips. should i up my powder charge by .5 since these things are lighter? i'd like to see a few light up but i dont really care if they do or dont. They just seemed like a cheap bullet to buy for plinking since i cant find my normal hornady fmj-bt |

I have 1200 coming in from wideners. I hope they work!!!!! Is there any other place to get them??? I have got them from Hi tech before, but I see they are out. I check them regularly for mil bullets. |

I see that everyone is using H335 has anyone used RE-7??? No, but I am using 24.5 grains of Accurate 2230. By the way, I got mine from Wideners. I ordered 2 bags of 1200 each. When they got here, I had one bag that was full of the 54 grain bullets, and the other bag had 200-250 of the 62 grain bullets mixed in with the 54 grainers. Not that big of a deal, but Wideners didn't do a very good job of sorting.
