    I would same Norma or Lapua depending on the caliber. Federal, Winchester & Hornady all would be suitable for a short range or bush hunting load. I load Norma (stamped Geco) for my hunting rifle but use Federal in my dad's as he is unlikely to ever take shots beyond 150m.

    I really want to try some Alpha! It appears to be cheaper, more durable and more consistent than Lapua in the US (it is US made rather than imported for them though). If someone can import it for Lapua or less pricing i'll be using that for my precision loads.
