I hope to shoot these in a DPMS flat top (1-9" twist Wilson, 16" long. I have Varget, 748, Benchmark, H322, AA2520 and a few others. I am looking more for accuracy (under 300 yards) than sheer velocity. This will be used as a paper/walking varmint rifle. I am new to H322 and Benchmark (I bought these for a 6br)and am leaning towards them first. I know every rifle is different, etc., but would like to hear of some opinions/suggestions. How 'bout it guys? Any sucess stories with the 60gr V-max in a 1-9"? Thanks, Keith

Great timing! I just finished shooting some, loaded with 23.5 of Data Powder 2200, Winchester primers, in an AR15 Frankengun, Oly Arms lower, Armalite A4 HB upper, with a 1-9twist. I have mounted a Simmons 6.5-20x56 on it for some long range precision plinking, paper punching, and making as much noise as possible. Shoots fantastically well--3 round groups of about .250/.275 at 100 yards. (I did'nt bring my calipers to actually measure it.) Seems like a good precision bullet to me. Enjoy!
