[QUOTE="esorensen, post: 1762921, member: 4302"] For me and mine, the accuracy edge is with the 20’s. That said, I’ve messed with action screw torque and got the 25’s to shoot .75” at 100 last week. It’s good to go to 200+ with the 25’s. I use it hunting certain properties where discretion is key. The 25 gives the best “anchoring” of the lot in my experience. Working that goofy bolt quickly on the BMAG to quickly get a second or third round into a spinner shot with 20’s is not fun. Shoot them in the same spot and they might run 10 yards and they drop with the 25. Just what I’ve seen. The prairie dogs the kids shoot are more violently swayed with the 20’s vs the 25. That said, this is a function of speed, but also the frangibility of the projectile. [/QUOTE]
