I have a new mini 14 tactical with a 1:9 twist. So far I have been shooting 55gr PMC factory loads just to get the brass for reloading and now I need to order some bullets.

My question is, what is your experience with different bullet weights? Has anyone played around with a wide variety of weights?

I guess thats a "no"???

I have,
55grn is the best for 1:9 twist , as far as accuracy in my Mini.

It shoots very near that with anything from 50 to 62 grain.

We had a good discussion about this at:

hope this helps.
