I'll also probably try to find a POI close to my 95 gr TMK load. I got the 70 grain NBTVs going 3100 with XBR out of my 18" 243 LBC but ended up deciding to keep my stash of them dedicated to my 6x45 where I get them just shy of 3k out of a 24".(as well as keep my XBR for my 6.5G).(10-04-2020, 12:39 AM)StoneHendge Wrote: Anyone try these? $12.28/100 at Midsouth, which is cheaper than any 50+ grain .224 bullet on ammoseek as of now (Hornady 55 gr FMJ is 13¢ per!). If 7.62x39 brass works for me, it'll be cheaper high volume ammo than .223, use large rifle primers and be effective on 2 legged varmints if it comes to that. 1.5 - 2 MOA would be fine....Dang thrifty AND wicked on bi-pedal critters.... What velocities are you expecting?
