22ARC

I wanted to shoot the 62 ELD-VT, and they were decent, but not great. My barrel just didn't like them quite enough I guess. I switched to the 53 v-max, and everything came together.
This is a from a 7 twist 18" AR.

- 31.8 Staball Match
- 53 V-max, 1.655 CBTO
- CCI BR4
- 1x Hornady brass
- Crimped with Lee crimp die
~3250 FPS
 
I got my 8 twist to shoot the 62s, but it likes them hot. I can’t really list the load here because I’m using HBN, because I have a lot of it and I don’t wish to just throw it away, so my loads are a little different than yours would be. I will say that I have found that TAC and 2230 have worked well for me so far.

I did find some good loads for the Hornady 52 and 55 BTHP bullets from Midsouth. I also found that, in my barrel, the 62 ELD VT does like a squeaky clean barrel. It doesn’t shoot them spectacularly, but it’s minute of coyote quite a ways out there.
 
I have a 20” faxon barrel that will not shoot the 62ELD-VT bullets factory or handloads.
I have had good success with the 60gr Vmax at 3250 fps using lever evaluation powder.
