    cheers for that i found the 2208 (4064 equivalent ) worked well behind the flat point 170s but the 2206h was better behind the 180s (10mm lower but a better group)the scope dials so thinking i will set it at zero for the bush round and if i have to dial it for other loads i can.......or the other way around . the rifle is a ruger 1:10 twist , son in law had his ladyshaver 1:9.125 twist (according to wiki) and couldnt get 180s to group at all (reloads or corelokts) he did manage acceptable bush hunting results with 150s and 170s, which seems to be in line with something i read somewhere about 150-175 being the sweet spot for bullet weight for his setup
