    Lots of good 6.5 pills in the 120-140 range. You can add the Nosler BTips in 120 and 140 grain to your list. Not dear by the box as there is only 50 in a box. wifes shopping logic!

    Don’t overlook the 129 grain hornady interlock. Excellent game bullet at Swede speeds

    57 gns of 2209 and the 178 ELDx or 180 gn ballistic tip. Start at 55 and go up by 1 grain lots to 57. Most rifles are ok with 57.

    Yes the 4.5-14 x40 are dim, have a critical/ unforgiving eyebox. The 3.5-10x and vx5 3.5-15x are way more user friendly. As is the baby 2.5-8x. Im also interested in the 30 mm version. Pretty...
