[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 1992657, member: 109862"] Many have mentioned the high bc 131 grain bullet from blackjack...it’s also highly suspected it won’t work unless the op (an Albertan it seems, greetings from Saskatchewan) has purpose built a rifle around that bullet. to my mind staying true to the intention behind this cartridge entails driving lighter bullets stupid fast for explosive hammer of Thor performance on deer size game and adequate performance on larger game compared to other .25 cals. Even with the 120 grain class bullets a .25 of any kind is not what I think of when I think of bear hunting. So I say, for whatever it’s worth, make this rifle and cartridge the best at what they do best. 100 grain class, 3600+ fps range. The Barnes ttsx has been mentioned already as has the partition. I’d vote for the 100 grain swift scirocco for premium and the plain vanilla 100 grain interlock for standard. [/QUOTE]
