What's this 95gr load meant for ?
I'm guessing where there isn't much wind and for small animals, like hares or South Island wallabies up to 150m ?

It should be good to 350 ive seen Grendel being shot to 1500 in YouTube with 123 amax and and isn’t be to bad in wind
And should be sweet for goats and smaller deer species maybe not a sholder shot with a vmax ( varmint bulletin) yet to try but certainly a neck head would do the job Aswell as Obviously farm pests like bunnies terkeys pecocks etc its more an alround farm hunting rifle
Should handle anything that you will find on a north island farm I could go to a 100gn nbt (hunting bullet) or 100 barns ttsx it could be used for any game animal in nz at reasonable range
Most would use 120-130 in the Grendel but I find that to heavy for the Grendel just personally
And arround 100 is ideal I own a 6.5cm also and that will be set up with 130-140 for big game
