This combo will shoot the 50 TTSX with 19.5 gr. H4198 and CCI 400 primer. I'm getting consistent 5/8" ctc groups!
Notice that this is is a full grain under MAX. A 20.5 gr MAX load opens groups to over 2".
This is from a very good Walther semi-heavy barrel on a Sako Riihimaki action that shoots the 50 gr. V-Max into tight cloverleafs at 100.
I wanted something quiet to shoot little "Party Pigs" around a feeder--This is The Load!

Been looking to try them in my Sako but not bought any yet. Mine shoots those type groups with the 50 Hor SP and 20.8 of the 4198. Do not know if that bullet will shoot in my 1:14 rifle as the 53 gr TSX will not.

My 1-14 Riihimaki hates the 53 TSX and really doesn't like much of anything over 50 gr.
Initially the 1-12 didn't shoot 50gr plus bullets either but it turned out to be a bedding problem. My latest box of 50 TTSX's has a yellow sticker on it that says "For 1-12 twist or faster."
I think there is also a 45 gr TSX available.
