I own a 700 BDL bull BBL in 223, it will shoot dime groups all day long with several makers bullets...some less than that. i played around a lot with cast in it and it will keep 3/4 groups at 100 almost every time. i have a supply of jacketed and cast loaded and ready to go when i choose to use it. it takes up little space in the gun locker and i know i can count on it ! that alone is worth keeping it to me. that money was spent in 1975 and was a great investment mine is not going anywhere soon.
