[QUOTE="snox801, post: 2393181, member: 54383"] I have indeed run both. I ran the 99 a lot over 100 pigs and several Audad. Mix in a bunch of deer and I have a hood handle on it. 99 works best with a full case of xbr and can be pushed to the high 2700’s with 18” barrel. The 97 I’m still playing with but it was harder to find a powder that was dense enough to use to get enough in the case to make more speed than the 99. I ended up with a full case of rl10 which full is good and it is faster burning than xbr. So I was able to get 3k out of my 16” bolt with the 97 my AR required a gas block adjustment and was able to get the 97 up to just over 2900fps with a barrel about 20 rounds down it so once broke in and some more playing I may get very clause to 3k and it’s very accurate. Taking it to Texas next week with a few hundred load and gonna take on some pigs. [/QUOTE]
