    Shot a few more goats last weekend when out looking for a pig. First on was about 50m which bang-flopped with the PPU 55gr soft point but the next was 280yrds away and following the 22-250 is a laser theory didn’t work (shooting under it) and I missed it 3 times. I thought they just fell over from fear with the 22-250? I popped in the hand loaded 50gr VMAX home loads that are smoking and that dropped it like a stone. Loving the low recoil.

    If I was rebarelling it would definitely be a faster twist but I'm more than happy with the 1:14 for now.
