    IMR4350 or its replacement IMR4451? Run 165gn partitions for 0 - 300 yrd, then 168 or 178 gn AMAX or 180gn VLD's for long range. Am going to move the new 180 Elite Hunter Bergers once i have time for load dev, impressive step up in BC. The Speer 165 gn SPBT is a very good all round pill, not true LR but good to 5-600 yrd

    Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts
