[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 35568, member: 10"] Docnoker, Since you are backed up against the wall time wise, I would pick up a box of 180 gr Partition factory loads and see how your rifle shoots them. The partition is an old steady standby and generally shoots very well in most rifles. Unfortunately 10 days is not alot of time to do alot of load testing. I would not recommend the 168 gr Match bullet for use on elk. The heavier match bullets will do better but the 168 is pretty light for what you want to do. Try the partitions and I bet they shoot well enough to get you easily through this hunt and then you can test loads after you get back with a high B.C. bullet. Good Shooting and Good Luck!!
