Was a bit of an experiment with the 223 using TAP projectiles...the OP asked if they were consistent...those 3 shots were very consistent. I was messing around with 55, 60 and 62 TAP and even tried some 26.5gm loads which was chrono at 3400fps but spraying...
No worries, the other shots are not part of that group. You were just firing three shot groups?
Are your projectiles lead tipped or plastic tipped?
Yeah - 3 shot groups just to get an indication. Using cheap, bulk buy - insert shop name here - hornady's thus why i thought OP was asking about consistency, as being as budget as they are, there are some issues with roundness and weight..
The tips are lead - my bad the 62gr lead tip projectiles are not the same as the factory BT tips, thought the nominated "TAP" projectiles would have been the same across the board - not the case...Out.
