Most people shoot for speed and and long range. The Speer 70 gr Semi Spitzer is very economical, has more bullet length in contact to the barrel for stability but not as aerodynamic out front. But with the small diameter of the bullet, I don’t think that makes much difference. The farther you put the bullet (past the neck) in the brass I get concerned about pressures, stability and accuracy.
“Most people shoot for speed and and long range.”
I shoot to learn where my bullets are at a given distance and to learn where that maximum is for a given projectile. I know the drops on the 55 grain pills out to 350 or so. Beyond that I use the heavier bullets.
I tried the 77 grain Match bullets but my rifle doesn’t seem to like them. Maybe I just haven’t found the right load for them.
