Has anyone tried the 36 grain Barnes Varmint grenade bullet? impressions?

i've played a bit with them. found them to be really explosive, I've also read that some guys are having some accuracy trouble with them, but i've sort of confined their use to the smaller 22's (221, K hornet) and they've shot fine. did pop a crow at about 75 yds with one in a 22/250 and there was this big black could of feathers floating away in the breeze

Nice! yea I was thinking about them in a .223 for a reduced load. maybe running around 2700fps so I was just wondering if they'd be more explosive at those lower velocities than the V-max bullets
