200 yards

[bryant]

you guys changes load or bullet grain when shooting from 100 to 200 yard on .223

[Anti-Hero]

Not for me; I mostly reload 55 SMKs on top of 27 gn. of BL-C(2). If I shoot past 300 yards, I'll use a 62 gn projectile. My barrel is a 1:9 twist.

[b.faust]

Nope. I tune a load for the barrel not the distance.
I load a 75 gr Hornady HPBT with 24.1 grains of RE-15.
I get a submoa group out of a 16" Noveske Barrel at 100 and I'm hitting a 12" steel plate at 400 yards no problem.

[short circuit]

I use Hornady or Sierra 69gn bt bullets. at 100 yards 6 shots in one ragged hole, at 200 yards a quarter covers the holes with room to spare. (Savage Axis 223 rifle)

I also use Hornady Zmax 50gn bt, but my pattern is just a little bit larger.

[Fjold]

No.

[ocabj]

I hardly ever shoot the AR less than 200 yards. So no, I don't have a different load for 100 yards.

But If I were to shoot a short range 100 yard reduced course regularly, I might just shoot 52/55gr BTHP to save money as opposed to my standard 77gr 200 and 300 yard load.

[hylander]

Nope, same load for all distances
25.5 of Varget for the 40 grainers and
25.7 8208XBR for the 53 and 55 grainers

[guns4funca]

Never stick with the same load or brand.

thanks for the reply. last week got to test my load on 200 yard and not getting moa that i expect. tested my load on 100 yard and getting sub moa using 52 grain bullets. notice almost all of you been using heavy grain bullet.
