Go figger, you had trouble with the 22 cal 50's I had trouble with the 6mm 70's. But......3800 fps in a 9.25 twist is 10K RPM slower than 3400 fps in an 8 twist, 296K RPM vs 306K RPM. RPM = MV (fps) x 720 / twist rate (In.). I bet that thing blows 'em up pretty good!
Explosive 22 cal 50gr.

Ok, so I gloated just a bit, but since you asked.
Today was my last day to shoot, but I went to the branding instead. For the trip, I shot 26 days, fired 5313 shots and hit 5052 dogs. My average dogs per day was 193.8. I had 3 days of 300+ dogs and could have had more. When I get to 200 I normally quit. On my best hit percentage day I fired 250 shots and hit 276 dogs.
To say I enjoyed the trip is a colossal understatement.

I never had trouble with 22 TNTs, but I did say they could blow up above 3400 (per Speer).
