    You will max out at 55-62 grain projectiles. boat tail 62-63 grain no good, but flat base OK.

    With the right 55 grain projo they are still hammer of thor machines. Sierra 55 gn spbt still flattened hundreds of deer for me in the 90's, before fast twist barrels became a 'thing'.

    Just nowhere near as flexible as the faster twist.
