If undecided about eventual projo weight and are erring on going heavier go with 2208 it will be good for 150 grain and 180s etc. If undecided and want to go to lighter pills (less recoil faster...

When you say cold bore. Is that bore clean or still fouled from previous sessions. Personally I have noticed that with all the rifles I regularly shoot (2 x .223 and 2 x 6.5CM) the first round...

I’ve got and tried most. I own kahles, Lightforce , March, S&B, Luepolds and always come back to the Z5 3-18 Swaro as my most fav scope. Great power range, 25mm tube, great glass. I have 6 or 7 Z5’s...

Same rifle but 22"barrel. Same twist. IIRC 18mm at 100 yards. This is my current load.
