My current Sako 75 1 in 8" twist 22 inch barrel likes real light loads
24.8gn 2206H at 2893fps with the can on, slightly slower unsuppressed.
Previous M-Bolt 1 in 12" twist, 22 inch barrel
25.2gn 2206H at 3103fps unsuppressed, slower with the can on.
Both times I didn't bother with the speed, but went for accuracy.
I prefer Blitzkings, not quite as explosive, so better on the goats.
zero feet per second (because I don't use them)
Haven't got v maxes, but got the chrony here to try the Hornady stuff out and see what it's doing. It is a 55 grainer though.
From a Tikka T3, 3251 fps from 26 grains of BM2 with CCI 400 Primer from a 19 inch 1:12 twist barrel with Gunworks can on it
