Varget is often recommended, but was about 200 fps slower.


Yeah, you can get more speed out of the 75 but it never was accurate enough for me at those higher speeds.... YMMV as it does with a lot of opinions here.


We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....
