[QUOTE="adamjp, post: 2724214, member: 40749"] That would be a 100gn Nosler Ballistic Tip. Flattens my local deer and pigs very emphatically out to 200 or so without a problem. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Grendel Pig - SM.jpg"]431278[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="DSC03696.JPG"]431279[/ATTACH] More broadly, some of the chassis systems give feeding problems with the Howa magazine system as they have incorrectly set the action height above the magazine. Fix that distance and they work flawlessly. The newer bottom metals, made of metal, are a boon for the rifle and I do like the look of the Stockys CF wrapped stocks. A 6mm ARC or 6.5 Grendel in a light, stiff, synthetic stock with a 6x42ish type scope which is clear, and high light transmission for twilight hunting is a great way to collect a lot of deer without fuss. Don't bother with the 123gn or larger bullets, stick with the 100 to 120gn weights over some 8208 and you have a light, accurate and deadly deer/pig rifle. [/QUOTE]
