.223 1:9 twist load for the kids?

Now recoil wont be an issue just wanting to know what people are using... I will do a traget/goat load and a deer load and may use barnes?

I use 69gr targex in 1:8 and am very impressed, can flick a few to you if you want to try

need to have the rifle in hand before I get to far in to buying pills....just incase I dont like it for the kids :P

Have been using the 63gr sierras for years and years great for everything including red deer.

You could always use the 65gr (or 64gr???) if you like a more streamlined projectile.

You can use 69 noslers for the targets but as you've seen performance on animals was poor, 60grn v-max great on pests.
