Anyone every buy/build a .204R that shot 32gr. bullets best?
Hey guys~flight-of-fancy question here, but back when I had a .204R that preferred bullets on the "heavy" end of the spectrum for that caliber, I did test some 32gr. V-Max (ON varmints) and was... intrigued with the results. I'm aware of the long-distance limitations of bullets so light (and with a less than ideal BC)...but still, I'm wondering if anyone out there with a modern-production .204R has found their 32gr. handloads to be the best shooters.
I primarily shoot a 1:9", .223 that shows a strong preference FOR lighter bullets, so I know some faster twist rates sometimes defy common logic on fast=heavy. Lots of .204Rs seem to be 1:12" which should..in theory...favor lighter stuff, but mine didn't.
Light/heavy all being relative terms. The "heavy" mine preferred were 39gr! lol
At this point, no desire to look at the wildcat .20s (though I'd love to try one) Strong preference would be a Tikka Varmint.
