I'll be there - leave pass approved! :shakeshout: How much will the 223 ammo be?

I'll be bringing a target to shoot the first round of the S-Class postal competition @ 300m - any problems with this?

Forgot to ask, regarding the 223 ammo - what bullet weight is it? 55gn or under is best for my rifle.
