I'm working up loads now for my 24" 1:10 AR.

It seems to really like the 40gr Hornady VMAX. Unfortunately I'm in a lead free state and I'm struggling to get the 32gn Nosler BTLF to perform as well. I was hoping since the lead free bullet is longer it would like the slightly fast 1:10 twist... Anyone have any experience with this bullet?

I shoot a 20 practical but I shoot 35 and 40 grain bergers. I don't have any experience with the bullet you are looking at.

Fun little cartridge though. Works well on coyotes for me but I usually shoot my 22-250ai.

I've enjoyed punching paper with it so far working up loads. In a 12+ lb gun it might as well be a .22.

Amazingly with the 40 Vmax I shot 5 rounds over the Chrono with +.3 gr each round just to get a feel for the speed and 4 of the 5 were within just about 1moa. Best group I've shot with one charge weight has been .65moa.
