[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2031925, member: 109862"] To elaborate on my brief recommendation....I played with a very finicky 220 swift once...tried other things, none of them did well. But the flat base 55 Nosler varmageddon over 38 grains of 4064 was the ticket. I had tried the 53 vmax because of the bc but it wouldn’t stabilize. IF I had the chance to play again I might try the 53 varmageddon. No boat tail. Higher bc. I’d also be curious about imr 4166 compressed. It’s slower burn rate but also denser so you can fit more in there. Copper erasing. Temp insensitive. Might work... But the safe bet is a plain old 55 over plain old 4064. [/QUOTE]
