Not exactly light loads, but light bullets. Has anyone here successfully loaded and shot 45 grain or lighter bullets from a 1:7 twist carbine? Reading the lore about 1:7 twist AR 15 rifles would lead one to believe that anything lighter than 62 grains would spontaneously explode in flight, or go hurtling in wild directions into space. It has been my experience that 55 grain loads shoot perfectly fine in my 16" PSA, but I have never shot anything lighter. With times what they are, I began wondering what actual results people have had shooting lighter bullets from their ARs. I know they aren't optimal, but has anyone had any positive results?
