    Corelokts?
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    If you can find them.
    120 SGK are pretty cheap, accurate and work well one deer if you have any left over from your practice. Other than that try some varmint bullets 100 to 120 gr they usually are cheaper than game bullets
    BC doesn't matter, until you need to dial

    Those 145 speers are lethal. Sierra prohunters are epic too
