    Looks like the one that I have. ( from PSA )
    Mine shoots great. The rifle gas cuts the recoil inpulse down considerably. Gettin' some impressive vels out of the 24 inches of bbl,especially with the 40gr NosBalTip.
    Considering going to 223AI with it.
    Best of luck with your sale of this upper sir. --- SAWMAN

    ThankYou Sir...

    How accurate are the 40 gr? I read a Lot of reviews before buying but all bragged about accuracy with 69-77 gr.

    I have a bunch of 75,
    but also a Whole bunch of 50gr Varmit. I thought the twist rate might be too fast? for 40.

    Not gonna budge on price SawMan as I actually don't NEED TO SELL. Its a Make Room Thing SO I can buy something else That I will try out...IF I try and really like I keep.. IF I don't like..SELL if I don't get around to trying it out for a couple YEARS... Trade,sell to try something else..

    I figured it would be very soft shooting..especially with lighter bullets.

    The 40gr NosBalTip's are extremely accurate. I have them going 3700fps using H335. You can get 3800fps out of them using a couple different powders. --- SAWMAN
    ADDED: I have killed tons of coyotes with another 24" 223Rem that I had especially built for me by Bushmaster (about 1991)it had a 24" 1:9 twist bbl. It loved this bullet also.
