Thanks in advance.


Whittaker's Special Run RAR, 1:8

36.0 Varget, CCI 200 primer, 2.435 COAL, 3,411 fps average. If that seems slow, I should note that this rifle has run slower than book velocities with every bullet & powder combo I've tried. Anyway, this load did kill a hog & a jackrabbit, so there's that.

I haven't run the 53 TTSX's in this rifle, yet, but I'd have to imagine they'd do well, too.
