Ruger .223
Went to the range with the Ruger All Weather. First time I've been to the range in almost a year. Didn't do too had. One target was with Norma TAC 55 gr and the other hand loads using 23gr Norma 201 with a Sierra 69 gr HPBT. I'll let you decide which.

Re: Ruger .223
A 23 grain .223 bullet? That is light. Great shooting!

Re: Ruger .223
Other than the one flier with the TAC it’s hard to determine which is better as both are fantastic. Probably 100 yards? I use that 69 grain smk a couple of Rugers, one a Mini and the other a bolt and both like it very well.
Feels great to get out again doesn’t it.

Re: Ruger .223
The hand load is actually the one on the left. The factory loads did a tad better but I didn't adjust the scope for either. I had the one "Flier" on the third or fourth shot of the 69 gr bullets. I knew it was off when I pulled the trigger. The grouping size minus the flier was about 1 3/4" on both.
