Anybody try out the new Hornady 208 gr. AMax yet

[Pitt300]

Had to rezero so shot some 208s.
These are w/9.4g of VVN110 which had clocked @ 1106 fps in past but went Supersonic last night but still a good group.
Wasn't even that hot yesterday????

After all the complaining I did about mine, the last time I brought them out to shoot they settled down and grouped very well, a little over one inch/one hundred yards. Load was 9.3g H110 and clocked in the 970's that day (92 deg F).

I'm out of them, only have left the rest of that loaded batch of 100. have since moved on to 220g SMK+11.8g AA1680=1025fps. Very satisfied with this recipe.

Hope it runs well in my new SBR.

Just shot 3 sub 1" groups w/208 AMaxs last week.
Used 8.8, 9.0 & 9.2 g VV N110.
Didn't chrono just shooting for "crack" sound.
For some reason my 9.4g loads went supersonic on me & it wasn't that hot outside so I backed down a little.
All 3 of these were subsonic & w/in about 1 1/2" of POI.
Bought 200 more.
At the price they're the best deal going & not that much energy loss from 220s & a LOT cheaper than 240g SMKs.
Hope this helps.

Still gonna stick with the 220 SMK's as I get them at cost. But... I will be investigating some other lower gn subsonic loads.
