I'm leaning toward Nosler Partitions, Accubonds, or Berger, but I'm open to suggestions. "In Alabama, we prefer to kill small bucks on big properties"-Turkey247

I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted..... proud Cracker-Americaan muslims are like coyotes, only good one is a dead one

Fun4all 10 point F Joined: Dec 2009 Posts: 3,494 Jefferson	Originally Posted by imadeerfan NICE!!! What distance? 100 yards. zeroed for 200 yards. That load with .2 grain more and .2 grains less than that load shot 11.9 mm (0.468") center to center and 17.2 mm (0.677") c to c. So there is a .4 grain range where that bullet shoots acceptable for hunting and most anything else, lol. That is from a stock Steyr rifle. Last edited by Fun4all; 07/14/20 01:41 PM.

After a PRS match last weekend, I walked that 280 AI out to 800 yards (6.4 MRAD). They were really consistent. I'm pushing those 2629 fps at the muzzle. At 800 yards they are still carrying 1116 ft-lbs of energy.
