[QUOTE="YZ-80, post: 1812761, member: 109229"] Three years ago when I started my romance with everything 6.5, I took the optic of my FCP-SR (24” w/ box mag) and put it away. Now my son is ready to start shooting and I’m mounting a scope this afternoon and I’m going to place a Midway order for bullets. This will be a plinker/hunter. My last pet load was nothing fancy but shot real well - either a 168 Sierra Match king or a 165 Sierra Gameking on 42 grains on IMR 4895, each 20 thou off. It pushed ‘em at 2,745. Its got a lot of life left in it with only 300 rounds down the pipe. So I’m thinking of developing something around a 168 or 178 ELD-M. Is this a good choice? How bout a more “modern” cleaner powder? I have a variety on hand, Alliants; Varget, etc. The Midway order awaits - What do you opine? [/QUOTE]
