was thinking the other day,there is a small niche for a heavy blunt 224 projectile...up weight and loose length so it will stabilise in slower twist but not a long range thing..sub 150 is me anyway

Greetings,
70 grain Speer Semi Spitzer is supposed to stabilise at max .22-250 velocities in a 1 in 14 twist and also in a .223 with a 1 in 12 twist. Been around for 50 years. Chews up a bit of powder space though.
