    I like the XTP for long shots, my longest has been 135 metres (pig) with a perfect mushroom.
    I prefer cast lead with a semi-wadcutter profile for close shots as they don't shed jackets.

    With open sites i can keep all 7 rounds on an A5 at 100 yards, but haven't done much beyond that!
    (however my Marlin has the microgroove barrel, which is very different to your Rossi)
