Just wanted to make a quick update. The Speer 250's where my first choice. As loading progress I had worked in some Sierra 225 GK. Man those just flat shoot in my rifle. I mean little bug hole groups.

My loads are Averaging 2494 fps with the 225 SGK. I m more than please. I have decided to put all my efforts into the 225 SGK and basically this is the load I will be using on elk this year. I also have made a scope change. The rifle will be wearing a Leupold VX-III 2.5x8-36 with BDC reticle that I was able to match using one of my ballistic apps. All in all everything has been positive. I need to do some trajectory validation yet, but I m waiting for the cooler nights to do that.

If anyone wants to know, The load is as follows. 225 gr SGK, 49 gr Ramshot TAC, CCI 250 primer, Hornady Brass and its yielding very good results.
