Took my AR with 20" barrel to the range today to zero with a new scope (Nikon) and had three different types of ammo with me so at the end I decided to compare. The barrel has a 1 - 10 or 1- 12 twist or something so I've been told that heavier ammo would be better with it.
Left to right on both photos.I had 55 grain of no fixed manufacturer that I had left over, American Eagle 62 grain and Brown bear 62 grain. The results were interesting.
i was shooting for these at the end so was a bit tired but the 55 grain was OK ish, 62 gr american Eagle ALL over the place and the Cheap n nasty Brown bear provided by FAR the best grouping BUT failed to fee about 2 in every ten rounds.
