Ruger is 18" stock barrel, CZ is 28" barrel. Aguila 40 gr. match ammo is very accurate in the 10/22, and I shoot it sometimes in the CZ when I don't have anything else, though it doesn't shoot that...

Sorry, I meant that in a good way. As in "ridiculously quiet." I love shooting my CZ with subsonics. I have not shot the 60 grain Aguila's yet out of it because I was worried they may not make it...

Shooting the CZ Super Lux with any subsonic ammo is ridiculous. It doesn't even feel like you are shooting a rifle. I wanted the long barrel for the long sight radius with irons, but the quietness...

5 shot average of 2232 out of a 10" with 110 V-max. Primers were flat, so backed it down to 2050 fps. No pressure signs at 2050, brass should last for a while.

My latest .308 load for up to 500 yards is a 155 Sierra (2156). They shoot well and have a fairly high BC. Honestly it wouldn't matter which bullet I was shooting, my limit is still my own terrible...

New Berger 175

I saw an article from Sinclair about a new 175 grain Berger bullet and thought "Hey, maybe someone is doing to the 175's what has been done to the 155's for a higher BC!" It only has a BC of .510...

Update:

Had a baffle strike in my suppressor, and the only thing I had been shooting that day was 110 V-max's supersonic, and 90 XTP's subsonic. The 90 XTP is the shortest/lightest bullet you...

Have you looked closely at your bullet holes to make sure they are round? You may have gotten a bad barrel from the same batch that I did. Check some of your targets and make sure the little hole...

My point of view: if you are already hunting with a 26" barrel, and it works fine for you, why not just get a 16" barrel for subs? With the suppressor, it will be about the same length as your 26"...

I haven't had the opportunity to shoot anything with the 90 XTP's, but I did shoot a pig with a 208 A-max. It poked a 30 caliber hole clean through, but still, the pig was dead within 150 yards or...

It probably won't work quite as well, since you will be working with a bit more case capacity, but you may be able to use heavier (150-180 gr.) bullets seated deep to take up some of the volume. I...

It works, but will require some minor cutting. Nothing a dremel/file can't handle. I will second the side charging upper. I wish I would have gone that route, and will on my next one.

I used 2400 for supersonic loads. VVN110 or H110 should be fine also. I would start at 16 grains of 2400.

That load of 4.8 grains Trailboss under the XTP is incredibly quiet, I shot some more of them this past weekend. They do not feed from a magazine though. I think it's because the OAL is too short,...

Trailboss is quiet!

It isn't ideal, but it does work. I started with 6.5 grains under a 90 XTP, and worked my way down to 5 grains. I would seat the bullet deeper to take up some of the case capacity for better...

Are you cleaning your barrel in between shot strings? All of my barrels do that to some extent when they have been cleaned.

Interesting that you seemed to find a correlation between barrel length and stability too. People say it's twist rate vs. velocity, but there is more to it. Unless of course your 10.5 has a...

Pretty cool. You really couldn't ask for better results than that. Only problem for me is; they wouldn't stabilize in my picky a$$ barrel. If I had a rifle that would work with them, I would for...

Super/Subsonic experiment

I wanted to know whether the sound of the rifle or the sound of the bullet striking would be louder, and just how loud the muzzle blast is from a distance. I had my brother shoot (1) each of a...

On a related note:

208 A-max is in stock at Graf's, and you can avoid the 4.95 handling fee if you order at least 4 boxes:
