The correct bullets for a 223 WSSM are .224.
"Boattail" refers to a bullet that the rear is not flat, but has a taper similar to the stern of a boat. Such bullets have a better "ballistic coefficient" than bullets with square backs- less drag due to better streamlining. 223 refers to the bullet diameter- or .223 inches.
WHICH rifle? There is more than one type made in this caliber.
it is a one in 12" rate of twist good for up to 55 gr. bullets may stabalize some 60 gr but heavier bullets may suffer in accuracy..... Turns out that ALL H&R/NEF .223 barrels made will be 1-9 twist starting in 2006. This is great news to those of us who want an inexpencive .223 rifle that can shoot heavy bullets.
1:12 or 1:14. Stick to the very light bullets.
The correct bullet diameter for the .22 Hornet and .223 Remington is .224 inches. This means that both cartridges use bullets that are standardized at that diameter, allowing for compatibility with similar bullets and reloading components. It's important to note that while the .22 Hornet and .223 Remington share the same bullet diameter, they are distinct cartridges with different case dimensions and performance characteristics.
The .223 Remington cartridge is commonly used in various firearms, most notably the AR-15 platform. Other rifles, such as the Ruger Mini-14 and certain bolt-action models, also chamber .223 ammunition. Additionally, some handguns are designed to fire .223 rounds, although they are less common. Always ensure compatibility with the specific model before using .223 ammunition.
Depends on if you are talking semi or full auto.
The Nerf Raider CS-35 comes packaged with 35 darts, or 70 if you purchase the value pack.
No, a .223 bore and a .22 bore are not the same width. The .223 Remington cartridge has a bullet diameter of approximately 0.224 inches, while the .22 caliber typically refers to a bullet diameter of 0.223 inches. While they are very close in size, the .223 is slightly larger than the traditional .22 caliber bullets, which include .22 Long Rifle and others.
Yes but I would only shoot those loads with a 55gr.bullet or lighter.I believe the smith and Wesson model 1500 has a twist rate that is not made for the heavier bullets found in todays .223 ammo.
The 1:12 or 1:14 are old recommended twist rates for the .223, to stabilize the shorter lighter bullets. 1:9 is considered optimal for the current heavier bullet (62gr for example) loading and yet will still do an acceptable job with the 55gr bullets. Look at loading data for bullets OVER 52gr and see what twist rate they recommend. sales@countrygunsmith.net
