12 Minute Talk: 22 ARC Cull Buck: The Perfect Kids' Deer Rifle Just Changed

Wade closes out its 22 ARC launch series with the Cull Buck, an 80gr ELDM load built and tested specifically for whitetail and hog hunting. The episode breaks down why extensive testing pointed to the 70-80 grain range as the cartridge's overall sweet spot, the point where ballistic coefficient, velocity, and terminal performance balance out best, and why heavier 85gr+ projectiles only shine in barrels 18 inches and longer. Full velocity data is covered across barrel lengths from 12.5" to 22", along with the host's revised recommendation for the ideal low-recoil youth deer rifle. Presented by AllyMunitions.com
