Well folks, I Finally joined the AR Family. Yup, I broke down & purchased a Ruger AR 556. Now I need some handload info. I have an abundance of 55g FMJ bullets (I was already In the .223 Remington Family). Can I expect decent accuracy from sending these 55g bullets down the AR 556 barrel? If so, any suggestions on Powders & quantities. I've done some investigating & have seen that Heavier bullets are suggested for the Bbl Twist in my Ruger. Would prefer to use the bullets I have Before investing in Heavier, but still want Accuracy. No sense loading the 55g-ers, if they wont't be "On the Paper."
Thanks for any/all input.
