Well I tried the 55 grain .224 projectiles today.
Remington R15 AR-15. 18" barrel
26.2 grains of CFE 223 powder, FC case, CCI small rifle primer No 400, OAL 56.6mm. Estimate about 3100 fps.
The projectiles look not too bad close up and shoot well. Better than the Barnaul projectiles I have tried and yet a lot cheaper.
Fire 20 rounds at 50 meters (limited at my pistol club to 50 meters max) and groups ranged from 20mm to 30mm.
Will be getting some more as they are easily good enough for punching paper, nailing steel and the price is right.
No sign of jackets coming off etc. so I am happy. Will do some load development in the coming weeks time permitting.
