In fact I would go so far as to say if your gun won't shoot that load under an inch at 200 yards there is something wrong with the gun or the shooter.

The 35 grainers shoot good to 100-150 yards then their beach ball shape the accuracy falls apart. The 40 you can consistently hit gophers to 275 yards.
Thanks for the info Dean. I’ll give it a run for sure. All I’ve tried is the CCI 500s for a primer and the 35s are the first pill I’ve tried. I have a serious pile of Prvi brass to play with. I’m honestly just getting into seeing what the cartridge is capable of outside of factory offerings so any nudge in the right direction is appreciated.
