[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2401393, member: 115658"] Some landowners won't allow motor vehicles, but wheels needed. Umbrella might be attached to golf cart - no trees for shade! Sierra data gives best accuracy with 85's using 49.5 [B]IMR4831[/B], I use that with 87 Vmax's. 87 H Vmax - 46.5, [B]RL16[/B] outstanding, easy 3 shot sight in, old established load, 87 H Vmax - 47.0, [B]H4350, [/B]is hot 87 H Vmax - 47.0 [B]SW4350[/B], close to Sierra data, is hot 100 H Interlock BT -, 46.5 [B]4000MR[/B], about 1" at 200, not as high velocity but accurate, less density than other ball powders. 100 H Interlock BT - 48.0 [B]VN165, [/B]fills case nicely, velocities moderate 3,100 fps, good accuracy R-S Hunter & H StaBall might work with 87's. My rifle has a 10-twist barrel & both 87 Vmax & 100 H Interlock BT work. 75's get over 3,500 fps but 87's velocities should be more at over 500 yds. The 100 H Interlock is a good cheap bullet and if I had to shoot deers with this rifle I would use it. 87 Berger VLD's pricy but I have 100 & will work them in. [/QUOTE]
