Looking for a bolt action .223 that will handle 80 grain+ projectiles. Does such an animal exist? It seems that everything is .223, 1:9, which would be too short, wouldn't it? Correct me if I'm wrong, I know nothing about bolt actions.

What to look for in a bolt action .223?
sigpicTags: None -
Is the bolt action .223 chamber the same as the AR .223 chamber? If so, I think it's too short to handle the longer/heavier bullets, isn't it? .223 = 2.260" and .223 Wylde = 2.445(or some such).
*Edit*
Of course, I was just looking up Cartridge lengths and under the Sierra 80 grain it says "1x8 twist Remington 600." Good call.
*Edit edit*
I guess that isn't even made anymore. Must keep digging...Last edited by Droppin Deuces; 06-10-2011, 7:36 PM.sigpicComment
