    After quite a bit of faffing around I ended up with 26 grains of ar 2206h behind the sierra 55 gr gameking as the best in my bolt action. Speed 3073 fps, es over 10 rounds 14.1 fps which really surprised me, and .46 moa at 100 yds.
    Cost to reload is creeping up as the bullet is not cheap but its not a volume shooter. For volume the belmont bulk wins hands down.
