jamie g Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 try 70 grain blzkings mate. i know the 58 vmax are faster but you look at the drop charts out to 300 yards and there isnt much in it. and you know when it hits the 70 is going to hit with more force. ive seen my mates 243 with 70 grain bullets. on fox and the blizkings are superb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorfolkPoacher Posted January 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 try 70 grain blzkings mate. Cheers for that Mate, I think I will give them a whirl. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kes Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Perhaps if you contact Hornady and pose the problem to them ? The reason I suggest this is I use only 40 grain V-max but at 3,600 fps I have only had one 'runner' and that was a poor shot corrected very quickly. There again though - if you lose confidence in your ammo thats half the battle lost so better to change to one which gives more confidence. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddog546 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Adds a bit of weight to the argument that the little 17 bullet is really adequate for fox when you have runners using a bullet with a lot more energy.I have had similar with the 223 in the fact that the round didnt seem to expel the usual energy on impact,so perhaps there is an arguement for to hard a lead!!!!

jamie g Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 i use to use vmax in the 22/250 and well there very good i found the blizkings expand better. and when checking to ogive the blizkings where more consistant to the vmax heads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
