Best Uses
Use this box for competition, target work and small pests. The V-Max opens quickly on small varmints at short range, which makes it a good carbine field load. It also runs well for matches and steel. A 50-round box fills several magazines, so you can test and still have enough for a match day. Zero with this load, since tipped bullets can hit apart from FMJ. Check local rules before you hunt. Save the brass if you reload.
