Default Trying some new bullets for .223...

I ordered two bullets I have not tried before from Midway yesterday. Since I keep running into hogs every time I go coyote calling, I decided to try and load some bullets that offered a little better penetration. Some Sierra Gamekings 55 gr. and 60 gr. Nosler Partitions. I finally got my Barnes Triple Shocks shooting decent about the time I ran out of them. At nearly$25 for 50 bullets, I decided to try something a little different. Anybody used either of these bullets before.

Also, I have IMR 4320 and Win. 748 for powders. I'm thinking about trying a new powder, any recommendations?

20" barrel with 1 in 9" twist if that helps
