[QUOTE="Ksmirk, post: 1379202, member: 880"] My AR I built for p-dogs I used a 1-8 twist, I COULD puff the 55gr. bullets if I wanted too (loading higher velocity) if it were ME I would just go with a 1-9 twist, you'll be fine with up to the 75gr. A-max granted you can't mag load them, MY thinking is if you want to go over 75gr. get a bigger cartridge! the 223 can do some cool stuff but I just can't see the thinking behind a 90gr SMK loaded in a 223 but that's just my opinion so take it for what it's worth! 1-9 should keep you happy with anything from 40-75gr. the 35gr are for 22 Hornet but shoot so so from a 223. Later, Kirk [/QUOTE]
