[QUOTE="Savage 22-243 AI, post: 1544922, member: 106450"] I had same problem with new 75 grain A-Max 22 cal bullets in my 22-243 AI once. When the new bullets got longer due to less lead in them I started popping out primers. I had to reduce load by 4 grains of powder and start all over on load development. Lost some velocity also in the process. When I found some of the older 75 gr. A-Max bullets I could go back to my old loads. Old load 46.5 grs. 4831 SC, Now 43.5 grs to 44.0 max. Over the years I have shot thousands of 75 grain A-Max 22 cal bullets. First boxes say 1-10 twist or faster, next generation says 1-9 twist or faster, now they say 1-8 twist or faster. Bullet length has grown over the years................Good Luck! [/QUOTE]
