[QUOTE="gordonl, post: 1184588, member: 95575"] First time posting here, long time lurking. I just bought an X-Bolt medallion 30-06 22in barrel and its topped with a Vortex Viper 4-16x50 FFP...this is my dream gun btw and I plan on using it A LOT!! I also am an avid reloader with .45ACP, 223, and 300BLK. I have a few questions about three loads I want to develop, please bear with me... -I want to load the 180 partition over IMR 4831 going over 2700 fps for elk/moose...is this a good idea? Will it expand at 500 yards? (yes I can make the shot if I need to on a wounded animal, where I hunt there are a lot of s#@ty hunters) -Should I use the 150r TTSX or the 165 for hog, deer? Would the 165 be able to take moose out to the ranges of the 180 partition, if so could that could be a "do it all round"? -Whats a good target round? I was leaning towards the TMK either 150ish or 160ish grains, I would like to be able to hit 800y with ease...most of the time though ill be shooting less than 500 :(...for now. Thanks in advance!
