    I've been running a Tikka 6.5x55 with a mild 120 eldm load for the grandson...shooting about 3/4 groups on a good night.
    Past few days I've started putting together a hunting load...147eldm with 2209 and the results are stunning. Quick 5 shot ladder test 42.5 to 44.5 gr to find pressure went sub 1/2 moa and then a guess at velocity and four shots went 1/2 moa at 500 yards...looking forward to seeing what this thing can do.
