Great for 1:14 Twist

Bought for my .220 Swift to use on whitetail deer and hogs. Will also make a deer rifle of my .222 Remington with same twist. The .220 Swift is a Ruger No.1 with 26” bbl. loaded to 3800fps on top of Varget. (Not a max load) Contacted Barnes about stabilization of this bullet in 1:14 twist and they added that the 50gr TSX FB will also stabilize with 1:14 twist. Will try both for accuracy and effectiveness on game. Thank you Barnes for remembering slow twist.

Launching these from a .22 CHeetah as a fire forming/prairie dog load. Other 55gr bullets turn to puffs of smoke in my 1:7 twist. Not these guys! 3/4” groups while fireforming. 4170fps. Can’t wait to see what it does to p-dogs.
