best ammo for 1-8 twist Satern-Liberty barrel

[ecsbowhunter]

Hey guys, you all have been a great deal of help with my decision making on my first AR build, now for the ammo.. I went with the 22" Satern-Libery 1-8 twist barrel and am curious if anyone has done some shooting with different ammo to figure out what worked best in this particular setup? Thank you for taking the time to respond and don't foget to wash your hands ;-)

We can both have the exact barrel from the same manufacturer. And they can both like completely different bullets and powder. It’s trial and error.
Do you reload?

Any safe load using a 120 grain Sierra Match King or any factory load using the 120 Sierra Match King. Don't worry about overall length. As long as it seats in the magazine and chambers easily, it will perform.

Mine shoots into the 6's pretty consistently with 120 Gold Dots and Nosler Ballistic Tips. The more I shoot it, the better it seems to shoot.

I seem to be the limiting factor with this barrel.
