    One lot of my cast , same can of powder .

    The Strelok calculator put the subsonic break over at 75 yd the 1-32 twist just doesn't have enough gyroscopic stability to get them through the buffeting coming down . It is painfully consistent . My choices for 100 yd hits were to find another 150 fps or lose it . I went to a 350 with rifle powder in hopes of getting it just under ......that experiment resulted in the purchase of a 45-70 . A 350 at 1240 fps MV in an 16" 92' changes ones mind about ones expectations .

    Did someone say 45-70? One of my favorites.
