Bad news, everybody. American Eagle has discontinued their "Tipped Varmint" loads and started to produce a new version with a hollow-point instead of the v-max. I am very disappointed, since this was my go-to load for the DB15CCB I'm going to start looking for a replacement load and will keep everybody posted if I have any luck. I've been reading good things about the Ultramax .223 Remington, Nosler Ballistic Tip, 50 Grain ammo and I found some on Sportsman's Warehouse for $18 per box of 50.Fingers crossed!
I couldn't get the Ultramax to group very well. About 2" at 100 yards. I had good luck with the Freedom Munitions V-Max 55g. I believe they are currently out of stock (and going through some financial problems). The best round I have found is the Hornady 55g V-max. It runs about $22 for a box of 50. It's worth the extra few dollars in my opinion.
That's good to know, @odeTOmaybe2, because I just went to the Ultramax website and found some bad news:Back to the drawing board...
