Here is the targets with my first 223 handload.

100 yrds in-door range at Frisco Gun Club on Jan 18 2014. Benchrest shooting.
Rifle: SIG M400 16.5" M4 profile barrel topped with Leupold VX-R 4-12x42.
handload: 55gr Hornady FMJ-BT with canilure over 24gr of H355 using a CCI primer.

Beiruty, very impressive! Good job.

I did not expect better than 2" from 16.5" barrel of M400 5.56. It is handloads that make the huge difference.
Just to compare when I run out of handloads, I fired a 5-rd group of Federal XM193 balls and the group opened up to 3" to 4" at 100yrds

Best group as shown above where around 1" to 1.5" at 100yrd. That is from semi-auto AR-15.
