    About 2.300" is as long as I could fit in a mag iirc. With a 1:8 I'd be looking at the 70gr+ projectiles.

    Pick a bullet not known for jump sensitivity, if you can't be arsed with tedious load dev. The 77gr TMK whilst pricey is easy to get to shoot and dynamite on game. I shoot the 69's and they're punching well above their weight so far.
