    As above, awesome project that i think would move closer to realisation of potential in a 1:8 twist for heavy pills and the likes of 2208. Although i doubt the high bc pills will stabilise in the current barrel it would be interesting to see what speed they could get up to.
    Would expect 2206h and the light pills should get you going nice and fast.
    Enjoying following your experimenting with it, thanks for sharing.

    Yeah, hear what you are saying about the 1:12 twist and the heavier bullets. I'll get it a try anyway and see how they go. I've heard mix results with them in twists like this, even a 60-65gr would be OK. Really want to move away from Varmit bullets for deer and Chamois.

    I'll try the 2208 with the heavier bullet and see how that runs and try the suggest 2206H for the lighter bunny load. Could even go back to BM2 for these and run these 53gr Vmax at over 3500
