No experience with this round I am about to mention. But I thought it would be better for barrel wear than my 20 Creedmoor.
I had several good kills at longer distances ~500yds with my 20 Creedmoor, but none were DRT...all ran some distance but all were recovered...i dont care about the hide. But the barrel went out quickly and most kills are inside 400 for me. So I currently have GAP doing me a 20GT. Should last a bit longer and have good kill capability. I plan to use the 55gr Bergers again, but also will use my 35-40 varmint bullets in my 20 BRA.
these are just toys, my real Kioti Killer is a 22-243!

Built a custom 17 Remington as of late and it is my favourite calling rifle now. 25gr bergers @ 4000fps. My 204, 223, 22-250 and 6CM all give me dirty looks when I'm opening up the gun safe in the winter.

Love my CZ527 17 Remington but it doesn't quite put them down hard enough for me. Too many runners. But it was my favorite calling rifle when hide prices were up.
