I'm starting out with 500rds of Federal Independence 55g but hasn't arrived yet. I'd like to try out some premium factory loads for grouping and accuracy to sight in on but I haven't formed an opinion on what load to buy... . While I'm comfortable figuring it out on my own Im not experienced with this caliber at all to know what to expect so I thought I'd like to see what everyone's opinions are?
Note, I don't reload so I'd like to keep this discussion to factory loads available. Also my build is a 5.56x45 chamber, 16"bbl, 1:7 twist.
What is your favorite load for accuracy?
Are there any loads for hunting in 5.56?
I know I can fire 223 but is this ideal? Does anyone with a 5.56 chamber actually use 223?
any and all opinions appreciated thanks in advance.
