222 rem and 53 gr vmax

[kiwi hunter]

I've picked up a sako vixen in 222 rem, is anyone using the 53 gr vmax in their vixen and do they stabilise or do I need to go down in the grain department, all help appreciated.

What twist does the vixen have?

Ah that is the question?

222 rem and 50 grain v max was about the best combo from my limited experience.

Google says a 14” twist. Not going to work with the 53 vmax

I don't mind the 50 gainers but just wanted a bit of xtra bc. Shooting wallabies in nz out to 350 yrds.
