Haven’t tried the 35 grainers yet. They should be VERY explosive.

I am curious to see if they will hold up when driven from the 22-6mmAI I have in the works, and if they do, what kind of velocity will be attainable.

The 53gr V-Max looks good as well, but as has been stated already, with it’s length, what will the recommended twist rate be? It would be another good candidate for the 22-6mmAI if it will stabilize from the 1-14″ twist.

It would be an awesome round given we could find it. These are going to be harder to find than Hens teeth. Adam

Get Some!
