[@bassboy99091]

Can you tell me the twist rate on that rifle is? I bought a heavy barrel savage in .223 that is a 1 in 9 twist so it likes a little heavier bullet but shoots 1/4 moa groups at 100 yards

[@deadhorse3389]

@@bassboy99091 I would like to know also since rem 700 ADL's in 223 made since 2010 have been made with 1/7, 1/9, and 1/12 twists That I know of, but wouldn't surprise me if 1/8 and 1/10 barrels had also been made since 2010. I am guessing the paint job is covering the twist rate engraving since I asked last video what twist rate it was and he told me he wasn't sure.

[@lovetoflylovetofly3843]

Nice groups! Hey Adam, if I send you a bolt knob extension for that, will you try it out and see what you think? I love them, and some friends of mine are making them. Where do I send it?

[@WHOTEEWHO]

Sure we could put the. Bolt handle in a video. All mail is received at heavy metal guns and outdoors in Bradyville, TN

[@mongosafariadventure]

55 grain bullets fly fairly well through most of the .223 rifle twists. I have an older 700 VS varmint synthetic (1/12" twist) that gives me 1/2" groups with 50 gr VMax homeloads. A second 700 BDL with Douglas premium 1/7" twist hoping to run 77 gr SMK but got my best results with 62 SMK. It can drive you crazy...Go figure my Ruger 77V, .308 can shoot 110gr VMax 3/4" , 150 gr very well, 168 gr 3/4". Haven't tried anything heavier.

[@randomoutdoors6794]

That’s a sick paint job man dude. Keep up the good work👍🐐👍🐐👍🐐👍🐐👍🐐👍

[@cervus-venator]

I didn't expect that from the Monarch, but it sure did the job. Good luck on that hunt.

[@m4tol]

Cheap ammo, cheap rifle, but very respectable results. Modern steel cased ammo can easily go toe-to-toe against brass. And if you are crazy enough, it can be even reloaded once or twice. Barnaul rocks and I know a few people using it for dynamic shooting competitions with great results. Appreciate the test and looking forward for more.

[@johnshields9110]

Nice steady shooting setup and follow thru on your part. Your ADL 'wants' to shoot!

[@2wheeleddemon999]

I never thought I would like 223/5.56 but after building my first AR I'm really starting to enjoy it. Don't think I'll ever hunt with it even though our deer here look like jackrabbits with antlers. I prefer the 30cal for that.

[@fiveowaf454]

I had a similar experience myself, I didn't care for the round, or the AR, until a few years back when I bought an AR, partly as an act of defiance against the political talking heads of that period. Now having spent more time with the cartridge in a couple of different platforms I've grown to really like it. I agree with you regarding deer hunting, I know many kill deer etc. without issue, but I'm always after the fastest and most humane kill and think a 30 caliber can achieve that more consistently and gives a bit more margin for error.

[@seanomeirs8362]

Thanks for the video. I have never heard of the Monarch ammo. I have tried 55g, 62g, 69g, 75g and 77g in my rifles. Each rifle has its own favorites.

[@toddk1377]

Monarch is the same as the old Red Army Standard and Max Steel. Made in the Vympel plant in Russia. Good ammo from my experience.

Love these videos player! Would love to see some turkey loads for the upcoming season!

[@carlosenriqueulloa]

In case you are wondering what the twist rate is, I looked it up. The twist rate on this rifle is 1/12, so it favors 55 gr. bullets. Good video, bud! This shows how accurate 55 gr steel-cased wolf can be with the proper twist rate.

[@MrTacklebury]

You should still hunt deer with the Federal. It's a bullet designed to expand for medium game. The Monarch is probably a hp for varmints and may not do well with penetration.

[@tdeberry71]

I did a quick search and the information I can find on that particular rifle is that it has a barrel with a 1/12 twist rate. Another quick search tells me that for that twist rate you will get better accuracy from lighter weight bullets, 40gr. to 50gr. But my AR pistol is chambered in 223 Wyld with a 1/8 twist (which is supposed to shoot heavier weights better) and shooting it out to a 100 yds. using 50gr. and up they all pretty much shoot the same. There may be a slight change in elevation, but close enough that there really isn't much of a difference.

[@slickdazzler7330]

Did you notice that rifle is getting better group wise, with ammo it likes, the more you shoot it? I think it just needed enough break in rounds shot through it, to season the barrel. I believe, now, the more you shoot it, the better you'll like it.

[@tomdixon2959]

Agreed, don't recall what the twist is on the barrel. If it's a fast twist it may not like 55 grain bullets.

[@slickdazzler7330]

Tom, from what i have read about those Remington 700s in 223, most were fitted with a 1 in 12 twist barrel.

[@user-bn3zo3mh5v]

@@slickdazzler7330 I think my 700 in 223 from the 60s is a 1:14. It was my grandfather's. I don't know what all he shot in it but he reloaded the 52gr Match HP and that is what it shot amazing. That thing was top notch for 1960s and Unertyl 18x scope.

Good Video Who Tee, I've never seen some of that ammo. I think I would use a soft point for deer, varmit round for anything smaller.

[@krisgreenwood5173]

My ADL with the 1/12 twist shoots 52 grain bullets the best. I didn't have the opportunity to say this earlier but I did shoot a 60 grain Sierra flat based hollow point over some Winchester 748 and I was duly impressed. I have not been able to duplicate that with other 60 grain bullets. Unfortunately, the 60 grain Sierras are hard to come by.

Good video, nice to see someone using an accurate rifle and that can shoot testing some ammunition. There are too many videos out there of people with AR's (not saying AR's are inaccurate) shooting various ammo and saying it's crap as they shoot a 4-5" group. IME the steel cased ammo can be very accurate and consistent. I've found on a couple of occasions the expensive US made hunting ammo I bought, was not giving me better accuracy when I switch to that after getting roughly sighted in with cheap ammunition. I was expecting the group size to shrink as I switched ammunition, but it didn't really change, however in the main I still prefer to use it for hunting because the bullets themselves will generally perform better on larger game.

This is how its done people. If one doesn't reload this is how you find your groups. One needs to shoot at the least 10 types of ammo 30 is better.. Shooting 2 or 3 types and not geting it to group and then you declare it a bad rifle. No just a bad owner lol.

Dang! That Monarch hp did pretty good! If you have the time, maybe do a gel test with that ammo and see how that projectile does. I've seen other gel test video's where the steel cased hp don't expand at all. If you don't care about the expansion, then Barnaul or the Monarch would be some accurate ammo to use.

[@jerrybowers2119]

Didn't think plinking ammunition would shoot that good. That rifle is grouping now. I chose the Barnaul and the Federal. The Monarch ammo was surprising almost as good as handloads. If they are using ball powder that is impressive now I need to find some boxes pull the bullets weigh the powder charges knowing 55gr fmj SP and HP very little difference in bullet type but the weight and length of the bullet and the powder type speed and charge make a difference I like Hodgdon and Alliant Powder extruded I can use a diamond scale to weigh fractions of a grain of powder for match ammo. The barrel doesn't heat up as much and is much more hot/cold stable less velocity variances with extruded powder ethyl centralite coated vs ball powder. I mentioned before I reverse engineered a load for my .222 Remington with PRVI Partisan ammunition as it shot very well in my Bergara/Shillen Barrel. I'll try a couple of these in my .223. If ya have a reloader here is my favorite recipe that works in several .223s Cases weighed match prepped hand polished with 0000 steel wool. CCI Small Rifle Primers standard not the match type. Remington Brass Cases. Any bullets I am Partial to Hornady 75grand 52grAmax and 69gr Sierra Match Kings Speer TNTs and about any generic 55gr fmj or Spire point lead soft tip. Use 55gr fmj with my recipe. Load to 2.25"oAL Hodgdon Benchmark Powder 22.8 or 23.1 grains. This powder weighs and throws like ball but is tempurature stable and accurate in every caliber I've tested it in. It groups tighter than the Barnaul and is precise will take the BB out of the penny 1 hole.

Accurate rifle and very good shooting. I actually thought that the hospital would be the least Accurate, but one never knows until tested.

[@garytrainer748]

WTW. Don't know about that little 55 grain hollow for deer brother. Meant for smaller animals. Could just fragment on impact and just cause a big messy but shallow wound. I've actually seen it happen with my own eyes. The .223 and a 55 grain is fine, has killed tons of deer, but i strongly suggest a soft point or other solid. I've actually seen larger caliber hollows fragment on impact on deer. Left a nasty flesh wound. Deer may or may not have died, but we never found it.

[@stevej2120]

Agree - that’s a varmint bullet. 223 is pretty marginal for deer. At least use a bullet designed for deer sized game.

[@user-bn3zo3mh5v]

A rifle is like love. It loves what it loves and your's just so happens to love trash ammo and that's awesome! I have never heard much about Barnaul but will have to check it out. I figured beforehand that it would have to love the Federal Powershok. My Sav 30-06's only love is 150Gr Federal Powershok. Cheap stuff and I am glad. It hates everything else I have tried but it eats that 150PS. My Sav 223 likes almost every ammo I have tried except 223Fed bulk 55 FMJ. Never found a Hornady that it doesn't love, but it's a heavy contour barrel and I kind of expected that. It LOVES Hornady 40gr VMAX when winds are calm and will shoot 1/4" groups. 75 gr Match Hornady BTHP non Superformance, just regular match will outshoot the 40 VMAX in the wind and still shoot 3/8" groups no wonder and half inch in some wind when the VMAX gets blown around to over an inch. That 75gr Hornady BTHP Match will shoot 3/4 in in Sav Recon in calm winds. Just about everything I have shot with that round has shot under an inch...and that includes other folks rifles at the range that seem to be having issues getting sighted in. I carry that stuff with me and I will shoot someone else's rifle if asked and I always throw my 75s in there and they do great in anything with a 1:9 twist or more...which is virtually everything made nowadays. I will give them a few shells and the box so they know what to look for at the shop. I wish I could find some right now! What is the twist rate on that Remmy 700 WTH?
