Didn't do well in my 14" barrel with 26gr of H335 though. Had 0.6 MOA @ 100m and 1.8 MOA @ 200m. Sierra Blitzking and Nosler BT grouping better...

Well bloody hell I never knew that. Checked on the website and bugger me it's true!

Problem is @JaSa, like a lot of blokes, I actually use the yellow tipped, less than half price bulk buy Z-Max. To the best of my knowledge they never made a 53gr Z-Max.

I see that the 53gr V-Max is a fair bit longer than the two either side of it.
