    Would you use the same powder for the 180grn Hornandy ? I assume for reds inside 100 yards ?

    Those 125 accubonds will work mint up close man, if anything i would be looking for a more frangible LR load to pair with the 125's. They need speed.

    I found mine was very jump sensitive. The 168 hornady and 168 nbt shot 1.5moa at 40 thou jump and half moa at 20 thou.
