    Uplandstaker whats your OAL of the loaded round I can't seem to find this in your posts. I have a std .223 with extended throat so can load the 60gn V-Max right out getting around 3300fps but using AI mags and mag kit. Great development of this new round.

    Length to Ogive is 55.88mm or 2.200" for both the 53gr V-Max and the 60gr partition. These are about 0.02-0.025" of the lands.

    If I had (or could get a tighter twist at a low price) I would be pushing the 68-70gr projectiles and reaming the lands a little more too!

    Sorry mate, you wanted OAL:
    60gr Partition 2.530"
    53Gr V-max 2.630"

    That'd pretty nice speed for the 60's, how does it shoot?

    If anyone is interested in purchasing this rifle, let me know. Otherwise, I'll turn it back to a 223Rem and sell it off.

    Did you end up selling this off, or still running it?
    Only just found this thread via an Australian forum.
