Took a minute to figure out what was happening. As I got near the max load for the 22 ARC, accuracy degraded quickly, then no impact every few shots with loud crack. Baffles are untouched, luckily was one of my short suppressors. Shot a sub 3/4 moa 5 rd group after this with 60gr TMKs. They need to put "FRAGILE" stamp on the box. Last few inches of the barrel was full of copper.

Ruger American Predator gen 2. 1:7.

Well, I was going to try them in my 1:9 22 CM barrel I just installed. I’ve had good luck with them in my 22 ARC so far.
 
I got them going 3450 fps in my wife’s sig cross. She’s shooting a 20 inch, 7.5 twist preferred Barrel Blank. No issues coming apart with that twist or speed.

She hit a prairie dog at 646 yards the other weekend. I think I’ll keep her haha
