This time used my 9 twist 22" barreled 223 and a load of Lvr. This is a max load in my bolt gun. 26.1 grains of Lve under the 75 grain Fusion, it gives 2925 fps. I set the gallon milk jugs full of water 1 inch apart up in a line in front of my target frame. The bullet blasted the first two jugs apart and put a expanded bullet diameter hole through two more hiting the plywood backstop and puttin a 1/8" dent in it. Luckily the bullet bounced back to the front of the milk jugs and it was easily found. It weighed 61.1 grains and expanded to .525.




 
Nice! that thing dug deep!

Have a box of those, except factory loaded slower than you are getting there...look like they'd be great on game
 
Do you know what the minimum twist is or the OAL of the bullet? Thanks

I see that they are 0.926” long. They should stabilize in a 1-9” twist 1.69SG at 32 degrees and 2000ft ASL

Well I feel the same way, just put together 250 using the above listed load.

Shot out of my 9 twist barrel, very accurate bullets from it.

Good luck and really looking forward to hearing how they do for you in the field! Happy hunting!

Going to be hard to go wrong with that load. And happy to hear it shoots through a 9 twist too for all the folks with faster than 7 or 8
