    I think that you are going to find out that heavier is better - either way. My poodle shooter destroys 55 gr FMJ bullets at the velocity I push them using a 1:7 twist.

    Those 77gr SMKs Mapper mentions, in my 16" CMMG 1:7 will put those baby bullets in an eyeball size hole all day long at 200 yards. And I believe the group is that big only because my optic has a 1MOA dot.
    I'd rather be lucky than good, but I'd rather KNOW I'm good than HOPE to get lucky.

    Sometimes you meet someone, and you know from that very first moment, You want to spend the rest of your life without them
