Got them numbers around the wrong way.bugger! Sorry folks.
Didn't see that and posted that on my boarding call in Brizzy.

26 gr not 62😆
Not that you could fit that much BM2 in a .223 case😆

Dougie, we are getting 2803 fps with the 75 amax using Ar2206H. Over 5 shots we had an ES of 9 fps

Hence the reason why I am asking in regard to shooting the 75gn amax's. They were really easy to get to shoot for that rifle

FWIW the BC of a 75 gr A-Max is 0.435 and 80 gr A-Max is 0.453, a little higher than the range 0.2 - 0.36

@BRADS yup I really want to come plink gongs with you!!!! 900yards for targets, deer are very safe at that distance hahaha. PS - wind is also a b*tch.

But then I'm also led to believe that our Dougie leaps tall buildings in a single bound and Faster than a speeding bullet

Haters gonna hate, go out (with a range finder and ballistic calculator) and you might surprise yourself.

Ha ha Dougie, good call but I was shooting a 223 before you were even thinking of one. In fact until I saw the light I had 5 of them :) (until Cam and KG showed me the error of my ways) so now I am down to 1. I still have a large drum full of empty brass (watch this space) Prefer a bit more horsepower now.

Now where did I put my rangefinder....................................... .................................................. .....................

Tikka 1:8 standard length barrel
80 amax 2800
80 targex 2880.

savage model 10 with 18 inch truflight 1 in 7 barrel.
75gr Amax 25.5gr 2208 2830 fps

65gr gamekings 23.5gr BM2 2880fps

but shoot to same POI at 100meters

chop it to like 14 inches

Not the heavier pills you are asking about but my 13.5inch barrel shoots 52g pills at 3000fps
