Depends on the velocity, shape of the bullet, and where the rifle is zeroed. For the standard .223 zeroed at 200 yards, bullet will be 1.4 inches HIGH at 100 yds, on target at 200, 7.2 inches LOW at 300, 22.3 inches LOW at 400, etc.

How far does a 223 bullet drop at 1000 yards?

There isn't enough info to give a correct answer. What grain bullet? What type of bullet? What is the initial velocity? How high are your sights about the bore axis? What range is your far zero?


What is the drop per hundred yards for a 55 grain 223 rifle bullet?

The drop is not a straight like, but a curve that increases as distance increases (a parabola) since speed is decreasing. Winchester has a ballistic calculation system on line that will let you plot the trajectory of a rifle bullet at different ranges. As asked, there is no way to answer.


What is difference between a 223 caliber bullet and a 45 bullet?

Caliber refers to the diameter of a bullet (bullet is the part of a cartridge that is fired out of the gun). A .223 caliber bullet is .223 inches across. It is normally used as a rifle cartridge. a .45 caliber bullet is more than twice as wide as a .223, and is usually used in pistols. The .223 is lighter- it weighs about 1/4 of a .45 bullet, and they are different shapes- .223 is usually pointed, the .45 is rounded.


How many grains of powder in a 223 bullet?

A bullet is the metal projectile that flies out of the barrel. A cartridge is the case, powder, bullet and primer all put together. A typical bullet weight for a 223 is 55 grains, although they come lighter and heavier. The weight of the powder inside the case will vary from (roughly) 22 grains to 28 grains, depending on what kind of powder you use and how heavy the bullet is. If you are going to reload 223 ammunition, get a good reloading manual for specific amounts.

What would the bullet placement be for a 223 at 25 yards if sighted for 100 yards?

Actually, since bullets follow a parabolic arc when they leave the muzzle, they pass through the sight plane as they rise to their highest point and then they drop back through it on the way to the ground. That said, the correct point of impact at 25 yds for a perfect 100 yd zero is dead on.
