I've been a quest to find a load that shoots good in my daughters cva. Got some second fusions and have been playing with loads. Haven't settled 100% on my load but I'm close at 26.0 varget. Decided this evening not to group but to see if I could catch a bullet in a milk jug. Stacked several around 125 yards and shot. Made it thru 3 I believe but went out the side of the last and I didn't catch it. Decided to stack 4 and had 3 wide on the back so if it came out the side I might have a chance. I ended up catching one in the third. It penetrated to the backside and punctured it but fell back in.

Started with a 62 grain fusion. Ended up with 56.1

I really like this.

Seems to me that bullet held together very well-practically looks like an advertisement for it. Definitely a good hunting choice if it groups below 4 MOA. I mean to say I really like this.

I wonder what a 60 grain .224 Partition would look like.
 
I'm impressed with the weight retention, not what I expected from some of the reviews I've heard.
 
I found these as military pull downs. I really didn't know what to expect but was pleasantly surprised. They shoot fairly good too. I still need to do a few more test groups but they are promising.

. The unmarked holes are the group with 26.0.

after an adjustment I sent 2 more.

I did notice when the barrel got hot it started string bad

I wanted to use h335 but I couldn't find it at the local store. I found another place that had it but I didn't get any. I'll check into the benchmark. I found the fusions as pull downs I think from American reloading.
