"IMO bullets in the 100gr range work better for hunting with a case of this size. The 100 Nosler, and 100 gr Barnes TTSX will reach apx 2775
from a 18" barrel using 27.5-28.2 gr of 10 x. Work this load up slowly. The 100gr Lapua is a very good target bullet in the same range."
Makes me think he should stick to 6.8 products.
ah, but he has been testing for awhile, so he knows the numbers already, as for the opinion that the 100gr would work better for hunting, well.. like the 6.8, is a heavier bullet say around 120gr better than a 95gr Barnes TTSX? The 120gr SST performs well out of the 6.8, and so does the 95gr TTSX, even the 85gr, the TTSX getting the nod for trajectory, but of course we know that energy is another factor.
