So I'm close to using up the last of my 58g vmax bullets. I went to the local gun store to get another box of them and wouldn't you know it, they didn't have any closest thing they had was 65g vmax. I went with those because I don't want to pay 10 bucks extra to get em off the web. I looked into them and they obviously have a higher BC but if I load at a higher end of the recommend powder range I can still get close to 3600 fps...I'm kinda excited to see if these shoot better then the 58's....any one think I should of went heavier than 65? I like the lighter ones because of the flat shooting capabilities not too worried about wind bucking abilities , I won't be hunting in high winds
 
what are you shooting with them? Ghogs no go light and cheap. some guns get sweet spots on bullet weights and type..
 
What's your twist. My 1/8 RRA loves 65 gr rounds. Shoots them way better than 55 gr.
