any favorites out there for a light varmint bullet?
#4
I've used 95gr V-max, 100gr Sierra hp, and 100 gr Berger. They all shot adequate enough. The Berger's did shoot the best. Expansion was minimal, but killed every varmint hit. The V-max's were a close second, and expanded much, much more violently. My rifle did not like the Sierra's. Grouping was okay, but didn't feed well. Both the Hornady and Sierra had to be loaded well short of 2.25 COL to keep from jaming in lands. The Sierra shorter of the two, that and the rather large hollow point would not feed reliably in my rifle.
