    Not quite what you are looking for but I load them in .30 cal, 7mm and .270.

    They are great game bullets and very easy to get to shoot. And reasonable value.
    I recently shot a bull Tahr at 575 yards with a 160grn 7mm and it performed very well.

    I had a Tikka Superlite in 6.5cm that i ended up selling to a friend.
    It shot 3 back to back 0.3moa groups with the factory federal fusion 140gr. Was seriously impressed.

    7mm 160grn Fusion exit 575 yds. Tahr was facing me slightly angled. Entered slightly right off centre above brisket. Broke shoulder, exited and skidded a bit along the skin.
