    The Hornady 62gr SP's with 25.5gr 2206H shoot .44 of an inch at 100 meters in my Tikka 1.8 twist.

    I duplicated the seating depth of the factory Hornady whitetail ammo because they are the same projectile and they shot well and it works fine.

    I have found Hornady 62gr SP to be better in my Howa than the 62 FMJ. Average group is about 0.8moa at 100m. I'm running them around 3000fps with 2206H from a 20" 1:9 barrel.
