[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1016639, member: 30902"] Out to 600yds the 168 wins, beyond that the 180 would be the better call. Don't believe published velocities, chrony them yourself or verify your drops out to 600 and run them through a calculator to come up with the actual velocity to build your drop cards from. No two rifles are alike so in the end be willing to try several different factory offerings and then shoot whatever your rifle likes best rather than buying a big lot of a single offering that may or may not shoot well in your rifle. When you do find one it likes though, load up on the same lot number and then when you are ready to start reloading you'll have a good supply of once fired brass already fireformed to your chamber.
