    80 grn .223 Targex from solid Fallow doe at 275 yards. Right through both shoulders and just under skin. Can't complain about that.

    Ive been shooting the 52gr targex HBN coated in my 22 250Ai at about 4000fps, but the BC seems off as it groups great and ES is great but much the trajectory seems off when im using the 0.220 BC. has anyone tested these at longer range? i probably won't shoot them much past 500 yards or so. mostly i shoot under 300 which is why the BC has not bothered me too much as that bullet at that speed is pretty much point and shoot out to that range haha
    If you can't kill it with bullets, dont f*ck with it.

    I use .220 BC and it works for me but Ive only used them out to 350yds and only verified it on animals. They punch way above their weight - real surprise packages on deer.

    574 yards, enough to clean miss my 200mm plate, thought it was wind call at 1st but was banging the plate before and after that rifle with some of my other rifles with no worries.it looked to be going under the plate. Didnt have enoug ammo loaded up to dial it in. Will do that next time i go out and see how far off it is.
