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.

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

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

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.
