That's the first bullet I'm gonna try out of my 22 creed..... That will be scootin' out of a 22cm. My 80.5's are going 3393fps from a 22", and its a hammer on the receiving end. I would expect those to be North of 3525 fps in a similar set up.
Are you going to pull those pistols, or whistle Dixie?

If I'd known this was coming I would have rebarreled my Swift with a 1:9 rather than 1:12. It would be interesting to see that bullet perform at 3500 fps! I bet we can still find that out and a bit faster with the 22-243 that has a 27 inch barrel. Bet at 3500+ this bullet will copper foul a lot less than the Sirocco
lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true
Mainstream news might be fun to watch

Makes sense to make a hunting round for the 22 Nosler.
Bet Hornady will come out with a heavy 22 ELD-X bullet too. That would be nice, and I bet you are right. Not that the 73 or 80 ELDM have much trouble causing damage in critters, especially when you crank up the speed in our 22cm's. But, for the 223/556 guys, this and/or an ELDX would be a nice option to have along with the 69/77gn Sierra TMK's.

Yeah them black rifles! Most of them are very accurate, easy to load for and self load into the chamber. And a more versatile platform is hard to imagine. I like bolt guns too but have phased out my boltgun 223 rifles down to one and it has a 1 in 9 twist. The real advantage to bolt guns is that they carry easier than the AR style rifles, no magazine sticking out. I think this bullet will be a fine one and will be trying some.
