[QUOTE="41mag, post: 162089, member: 3804"] When my mom was still hunting back in the early 80's, I worked up a load using Nosler BT's, 46grs of Imr 3031, Win cases, and lit by a Win-WLR primer. THe velocity was right at 2800fps and the recoil was very mild in our rifle. IT only weighs around 8#. She used it to take a very nice buck, and my daughter started shooting it when she was only 8, and since has taken several hogs to ranges out to 350yds. THis has been a very accurate load from this rifle shooting around 1" groups consistantly at 200 yds. It has worked so well, that only in the past couple of years have I explored anything else for it. IT is simply a pleasure to shoot and drops deer and hogs with authority, and the BT doesn't generally blow up on impact due to the lower velocity. It is definately worth a look if you have access to some 3031. [/QUOTE]
