    Both paper and animals on the ground.

    My main load is the 130gr Accubond going 3060fps out the barrel with very good accuracy. I have shot Tahr, Reds (hinds & Stags in Roar), Fallow, Goats, Pigs, bunnies from 20 yards to 350 yards and every one has been a boom...flop.

    I worked up a load with the Gamekings for a more cost effective option and get exceptional accuracy with RL-22 albeit at the cost of some speed. Only shot fallow with those and they performed very well. Will stick with the AB's for a while longer as they do so well & I have a fair few 100's of them.

    Plenty of other options as well: 140gr Hornady SST, new 150gr LR Accubond, Bergers, etc.
