I use 55gr vmaxes in my 22-250, great bullets and accurate as hell with 35gr of H4895. Havent chronied the load but on paper it should work out to about 3600fps- not much slower than factory stuff. Every hit i make on foxes rips a nasty hole out the other side, or takes part of the head off. Though last weekend I hot a fox about 250m away and the vmax didnt expand, it went straight through and the fox fell over after a minute or so when my mate was lining it up for another shot. Clean through almost like a FMJ... wonder if there wasnt enough energy to initiate expansion or if the bullet was a bit more solid in construction that the others in the box.
