    53vmax in 12 twist

    I used them in my 1:12 twist .223AI at 3550fps.
    They shot great out to around 500m but started to do funny things and tumble after that which was probably due to a loss of stability.
    They may go ok out of a 1:12 twist, especially with the extra velocity/more RPM’s the .22-250 will start them off with but a faster twist would be better.
