[QUOTE="Moike, post: 2499737, member: 122272"] I load 73 grains of H4350 with Barnes 168 grain TTSX BT in both mine and my sons Tikka’s. They are 1 in 10 twist as well I believe. I get 1/2 to 3/4 MOA out to 800. The H powder doesn’t vary velocity enough between winter and summer to effect trajectory so my zero is always consistent here at sea level. I have a custom turret on a Leupold, it’s awesome. For practice off hand and out to a few hundred yards I substitute the cheaper Hornady or Sierra 168 HPBT Match. 1-1/4 MOA. During lockdown here in Canada I got a 1000 litre tank and did a bunch of ballistic testing on as many projectiles at varying velocity's and calibers as I could get. The solid copper Barnes and Hornady Bullets I tested out performed absolutely everything by an exponential margin. They were very accurate and retained all but a few grains when shot and mushroomed perfectly. They also penetrated the deepest in the tank. The damage they do going through a game animal while spinning opened up to around 3/4” in diameter is unbelievable. My boy shot his first deer with one in the fall, a medium sized buck, and it dropped directly where it was standing. Worked perfectly. Hope this helped Regards Mike [/QUOTE]
