    So I have sorted a load for my 6.5-55AI. @2,868fps average with 140amaxs. 21" barrel with the suppressor on. I'm happy with that myself.

    Watch out 4 legged critters

    Oh and I loaded the 220gr RN in the 300wsm and got a @2,630fps average over 6 shots. They were rather consistent.
    That's gonna hurt whatever it hits me thinks zero at 25 comes close enough to zero at 200m. about 8cm high or so at 100m so should be able to aim at the shoulder and hit it out to 200m.

    that's a pretty good rule of thumb for any standard deer cal Toby.

    on at 25 couple inches high at 100 on again at 200... near enough.

    Good speed there Toby the amax will drill anything dead it hits at that velocity and would be very accurate.

    It's 1-8 march Cam, I wanted something small and 'discrete' that I could chuck in my pack during the roar etc but still have the ability for a longer shot if needed.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
