[QUOTE="LongBomber, post: 1768057, member: 14435"] I run the 225 ttsx in my 33, imr7977, not a super hot load my accuracy was at 2850fps. Only one black bear and a moose so far, but it performed well on each one. I wouldn’t hesitate to use a 225 or 250 accubond, or any of the ttsx/tsx/lrx bullets. Just skip the eld/vld stuff if your shots are going to mainly be in the under 100y range. Hopefully your CA rifle is chambered so it can use the longer mag length of a true long action, you can gain a fair amount of case capacity being able to seat out 3.6 - 3.8” instead of under 3.4” like my nosler rifle.
