[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 160398, member: 10"] I tried some moly coated 107 gr ULD RBBTs and it only offered around 50 fps more velocity potential before accuracy dropped off. I believe this has more to do with the 3 groove rifling design then anything. A 5R, 5C or thin 6 groove would certainly help the situation but with the current thin jacketed bullets I am pretty sure they would still fail before we reached top velocity potential which is right around 3500 fps with this bullet weight. Hopefully we can get some heavy jacketed bullets to try but until then testing has been put on hold for the original 224 AM design. Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
