Is there anybody that has been loading these up for hunting with the xcr-l? If so what load are you using and what kind of groups are you getting? I have the xcr-l on order and thought I might get a little head start on loading up some rounds before it got here.
50 gr varmint grenades for the xcr-l

My xcr-l loves them, had a box of 75, 50grn vg's given to me because of poor accuracy in a friends rifle, turn out to be the most accurate out of the 10 or so other bullets I tried.

I also did a range report a while back using them too.

No, didn't see the point as the 50's shot so well. I've taken a few coyotes with the 50grns from 1-300yards. Worked excellent, Small hole in, no exit wound, instant death. Shot thousands of gophers, cant say I notice a difference in explosiveness compared to cheap 55 grn Hornady SP's. I couldn't get really good accuracy out of anything but the VG's. Probably due to not being able to seat the Match bullets into the lands and fit the Mag's.

I've used 40gr vmax in my xcr, average accuracy.

I find I get better accuracy from my XCR with heavier bullets. It seems to like 75gr......
