30 cal 110gr V-Max

[igojuone]

Looking to work up a load for 110gr V-Max out of my 30:06 with 1-10 twist, has anybody tried these, have any advice?

I've got some Benchmark, BL-C(2), CFE 223 and H4895.

Thanks

I tried them in my 30-06. I think varget is what I used. Max speed I got was 3300 and change but the best accuracy was around 1.5"

Think that they are actually intended for 300blk and 7.62x39.....not sure what your intent is for them?

Shot these out of .300 wsm and win. 3500fps+ and was one holing with the wsm.

The 125gr Ballistic Tip is a better choice. The 110gr bullets are so short you end up with a huge jump to the lands.

the 125BT is also twice the price if you can find any

I was thinking of trying them out on wolves.

as long as they don't disintegrate in flight, you're good to go.

I'll find out, I have the projectiles in my possession so I'll either figure it out or try something else.

I would start with H-4895 or benchmark as they are temperature stable. Every 30 cal I've shot the 110 vmax in has shot them very accurately, you might be surprised with how your rifle shoots.

I use them mostly in my 300BLK rifles but have made some in 308win. The 308 loads I made for my RFB actually shot sub moa in my 24 inch AR-10. I never did run them over a chrony but the load data said they should be well over 3000fps.
There is plenty of reloading data for them in the Hornady manual. I'm at work right now or I'd have a look for you.

Not really, they are the general .30 cal varmint bullet in the V-MAX line.

They do also make a .310 V-MAX for the 7.62 x 39 specifically.

I'm excited to try them out, I think I should probably pick up the Hornady manual as well.

I've shot them out of my 300 rum with around 113 grains of h-1000. I think it was close to 4000fps, work great on coyotes.
