I have some 55 nbts. I was thinking the 53 (or is it 52) vmax. Will try the 45gn acp and the 40 nbt I think.

If you do go a 40 Trev is go a b/tip , vmax or blitz king , have fun either way but a 50 or 55 at 4000 would be a better choice if it shot really well , I like 70 b/ tips in 6 mm but they just didn't measure up to the accuracy I wanted in this barrel so vmaxs it is

Trev, that is what I will be running in my 22 PPC after it is built, also have a goodly supply of 55gn sierra and hornady pills in stock, just for the odd occasion I feel like giving the goat population a pasting.

Mark I was thinking 45gn ACPs would be awesome if I got to try it on anything bigger.
Other Mark I tried the 70gn sierra bk. 65gn VM and settled on the 70 NBT for my 6/250 8 years ago. Surprised they didnt work for you

Trev they shot ok and I'm pretty picky , you still wouldn't have missed with them and all the testing was done at 200yds and they were just over the inch mark at that distance so ill probably play with them some more

Mark when I look at their site that stock pattern doesn't grab me (no accounting for taste) BUT the real world photo of your rifle is more interesting.
Could you post a few photos taken from a little further away so I can see the whole rifle please
