Has anyone tried this bullet in their 223, if i read all the info right hornady recommends a 1-12 twist. I just got an LTR with a 1-9 twist, so has anyone shot this bullet in their 700? Any info would be great, i have 2 boxes of said bullet's, but no new hornady book. Thank's

I think I'd go to Sierra.com to find loads for a 53gr. I would start at the low end of the data with a fast twist like 1:9.

With that twist you should be good at 60 to 77gr bullets (next time)
