So I tested 5 rounds of a 22gr load with an average of 1573 velocity. I fired another 25 rounds at a target 75 yards away, with another 25 with the 23gr load. At this point, I'm new at shooting this current 30-30, but I felt accuracy was close between the 2 loads with the variable being human error. My target was 20" in size with my impact being at 50%. For now, I was good with that with the hope of improving in time.
So I do have an interest in playing with some 110gr FMJ for the M1 that was suggested. I do have some Unique on hand, but can someone share a suggested OAL? Thanks again!
