[QUOTE="The Bear, post: 293298, member: 18681"] kweidner, I actually think any of those rounds are great. I have only had one rifle in my life I could not come up with a load that would provide satisfactory groupings. That was a .270 Win. in a Ruger 77. I really like to tout the .220 against the .22-250 die-hards just to hear them growl.:) I have yet to find a place I can buy entertainment like that! My M-77 BB is the only rifle I don't hand load for. I found the Hornady Custom Grade rounds to be as good as anything I could build for that particular rifle. Somewhat more expensive. However, it allows me to spend more time working with other rounds for rifles that are a little more picky. I do not own a custom made rifle. Been considering a custom built .204. Upper management hasn't ruled on that idea yet. Heard one comment about giving up next years annual trip to Costa Rica for a new rifle.
