What brass?

 

[trevi]

Well, I have once fired Sellier & Bellot and Privi Partizan and some other brands. Never really shot for groups but my two mentioned rifles shoot them well out to 200 yards (my farthest) to date.

Sorry for the confusion. I was asking pharmseller what brass he used.

 

[pharmseller]

Remington, only because I have pounds and pounds of it.

That might help explain why you can get higher velocities as well. I've found the Remington .223 brass to have a fair amount more case capacity than most others.

A lot of long range competitors really flog their rigs, the primers fall out they're so hot.

I might flog my rig but it's got nothing to do with primers.

Velocity is in line with published data.
