    Look for some Nosler flat base bullets, I saw some the other day $260 for 500.

    I used a 250 for years to shoot bunnies in central, nearly killed the barrel in a weekends shooting...

    I used to load 34gr 2208 55 vmax for 3600ish.

    I switched to Hornady bulk 55gr SP wich killed the fallow and goats well but noticed a few inches more drop compared to the vmax.

    My cobber always swore by the 60gr vmax for everything up to fallow / sika.

    Warm Barrels!
