I have owned one of these since early 90s. It carries like a 22. Out west I use 180 grain old Nosler Solid Bases and they knock elk right down.
In MI, I use 150s.
Never saw a gain in performance of the 165s over these two weights.
I do suggest some bedding in the barrel and action areas to help keep the skinny barrel shooting straight for two or three rounds. Although I have never needed more than one for deer and elk.
One of my two GO TO guns.
Someone needs to buy this.
