I played with hornady 110 spire point varmint bullets (not .30 carbine projectiles, no idea what that assertion is based on) in my 300 win mag and never could get much for groups. The 10 twist is the problem. Got em around 3800 fps with imr 4350. 4 inch groups at 100. No good for any field use but they were a novelty load to begin with. The vaporization of a rotten pineapple, a rotten watermelon, some pumpkins, water jugs, and frost bitten zucchini was extremely gratifying and exactly what I was after.
