    G'day all,
    finally got a chance to get back to the range and fire off the last 12 rounds with 2217. Very interesting results. best group was with 73gr of 2217 which had average speed of 2930fps as well. this was the same as 74gr of 2225 which gave my best group in that lot. So seems like this rifle loves the 180gr going through it at 2930fps. Pretty stoked with that. Now I need to test it out at longer ranges when I can find a place and time.
    Will probably stick with the 2217 as its 1gr less. Unless any one can advise on why 74gr 2225 would be better.
    Cheers
