Suggestions for plinking 223 bullets.
I am going to be starting reloading. I plan on just plinking with my AR so the bullets to me don't really matter. I just want the best bang for my buck. Thanks

Midway USA -search around. What's the twist rate on your barrel? Somewhere on Olympic Arms's web site you can find what works best for your twist.

I was looking on Midway.com, what are the problems you would get with blemished bullets?

reloading for the 223 is fun and if you have one you need to know how to reload for it. but have you look into getting a 22lr conversion kit for your gun. most kit are under $200.00 and they drop in. you can "plink" a whole lot more with a 22lr kit over reloading.

Sometimes this guy has surplus or "pulled" military bullets for cheap.
