Have read all i could find on .223 loads, here and elsewhere.
Need a load for 35gr. v-max out of a ruger m77 compact for my 8 yr old
girl to shoot. I know my regular 50gr loads wont hurt her, but she is still
a bit recoil shy and think it would be a boost for her confidence if she "helps"
me reload rounds just for her, and have them light enough that she can feel
that they are her loads.
I have tried varget, and rl-15, (40gr data). Accuracy was poor.
The gun is normally shooting right at m.o.a with my "normal" 50gr loads.
Is it the bullet? Or the short barrel? Have heard they wont shoot slow???
Any/all info would be greatly appreciated.
