6.5shooter Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 Has anyone tried these bullets in their 6.5 for foxing? Thinking of trying them out in either 6.5x284 or 6.5x47 just wondered on youre findings? Where they easy made accurate in an 8 twist and what is performance like on fox?

gun nut Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 Hi Garry, my 6.5x47 ( 8 twist lotharwalther tube)loves the 95vmax in 6.5. Never shot a fox with it yet, but I think it would be messy! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gun nut Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Getting about 3150fps Garry with 38.3g RL15 but I'm now using Vit140 for the 120 Amax, 120 Sierra Prohunter and Berger 130 vld's and gonna change the 95's to that as well when the 15 runs out. Interestingly I got 2 accuracy nodes with the Vit140, one at 36grn and another at 37.5grn which produced 2820fps and 2930fps respectively in the 120Amax's. I shoot the lower as the higher is way above Vitavouhri's own max load and they designed the round and I recon they know more than me about it.
