[QUOTE="Koda_, post: 2450692, member: 121268"] One of the other drawbacks I see is there isnt a huge offering of heavier bullets for this caliber for hunting big game. The only ones I know of are Hammers and Bergers. Since I also hunt elk with this rifle if I wanted just one projectile to do all Im leaning to the 128g Hammer Hunters, Im unfamiliar with Bergers performance and tend to favor monolithics (but I do see the 133g Bergers have a very high BC). I have a feeling I will end up developing a load specific for deer and pronghorn and would go down to 100g projectiles for that probably the Barnes TTSX or LRX... I have a good supply of 100g Barnes TTSX to get me going, and about a hundred 120g Nosler Partitions I got lucky to find... collecting reloading components has been a year long process and lots of waiting but I have enough to get started now, except it will be delayed while I wait now on the new barrel.
