Does anyone have much experience with these and if there’s a speed to hold them below to keep them from coming apart?

22 creed with a 7 twist 5r

A couple of us running them in 7tw 22 dashers. 2 guys w 4 groove and me w a 5r. All running them around 3100fps. The 4 grooves have more issues. Definitely can shred some jackets...

Thank you! Think I’ll give some a try

I wouldnt push em much harder than 3150ish and in long strings. RPMs are what blows them up and at 3150 in a 7tw they are at 326k. Over 300k is when bad stuff happens

I’m at 3150 out of a 22” 1:8 5r 22-250 AI. They do just fine for me at that speed. Haven’t tried pushing them any harder.

I can't get them much faster than 2850 /2875 in my 224 Val. They are very accurate at that speed though.
