[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 873825, member: 11717"] Unfortunately you won't be able to get those bullets close to 4000 fps before they come apart. Best chance at getting a thin skinned bullet out of a tight twist at high velocity is with a 5R gain twist bore. The best thing for you to:) do is call the bullet maker to find the top end velocity of their offerings. Your other option is to call Dan at CEB and see what the heaviest highest BC bullet he can make you in a.224 7 twist. I'm guessing maybe an 80. The barrel makers are sure gonna like you :) [/QUOTE]
