I really like the Black Hills ammo loaded with the 50gr. Vmax out of my Remington 700 VS SF with a 1-12" twist.  Very accurate out of this rifle well past 300 yards.

I have rr arms ar with a 16" heavy barrel 1 in 9 twist and blackhills 50 v-max shoot awesome out of this gun, have also tried hornady and federal with 50 v-max bullets and got the same results. Me and my nephew shot the same gun and it was good for 130 coyotes last year and so far we have 29 this year. :hunter: :hunter: :hunter: :hunter:

I got a new one out for my AR that seems good. It has a 1/9 twist...
