32 VMAX AND IMR 8208 XBR

Post by mmw1015 »

Has anyone had much luck with this combination,
also the 26 gr. barnes and the 8208 xbr?
If so what powder loads seem to do best?

8208XBR with 26 gr VG is what I use for ground squirrels. Tack driver at 100 yds. Screams out at 4100fps.

I shoot 28.6g with the 32 v-max. It runs about .5 moa with some groups in the .4's, and velocity just below 4,100 fps in a Savage model 16 ww with 22" barrel.
