About this bullet

.223 | 69gr | RWS Scorion HPBT-Match is a bullet made by RWS. At 69 gr (4.5 g) and a diameter of 0.223'' (5.66 mm) it suits handloads where bullet weight and barrel length have to be matched carefully. Its G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.001 drives velocity retention and wind drift downrange — higher values mean a flatter trajectory at distance. A twist rate of 1:10.5 is recommended for stable flight; slower twists can under-stabilise this bullet. We currently list 94 load recipes across 28 calibers for this bullet.
