[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1340721, member: 70559"] savagelover, Contrary to what I was told would work I tried my own thing and discovered some things don't always go the way others think they should. When I had a heavy barrel 26" Savage .223 9" twist I ran clear up to Sierra 80 grainers out to 724 yards. My longest kill on a rock was with the Hornady A- Max 75 grainer. It entered the rump and exited below the chin at 527 yards. The most accurate bullet was Nosler Ballistic Tip 55 grain. I did a primer test with this rifle. If you want I will post the results. They were surprising and enlightening. [/QUOTE]
