My 22.250 seems to like the 80 A Max for accuracy over the 75 grain version... In fact it likes the 75 grain BTHP better than the 75 A Max also... but ties the 80 grain version for accuracy... They are each available in boxes of 600 from Hornady, each for a few bucks less than $100...

Then I read on the campfire how awesome the 75 amax was so tried it and didn't get the accuracy the 80gr gave me. Don't listen to stick, boxer.... or whatever he calls himself these days.

Being an Alaskan resident I believe you could purchase over the counter tags?? A great hunter such as yourself should have several "book" rams? Maybe you spend too much time posting and not enough time hunting?? So who is using there imagination too much? How about some "book" caribou? moose? grizzly bear?.....

Certainly, a 450yd shot like that couldn't be made with a Savage 243, or 257, or a 260, or a 270, any other caliber shooting core-lokt, or ballistic tips, or hot-cor, etc. That is certain. It is great those guys had all your wonderful help, Stick. They owe those rams to you. In fact, you should just claim them. Yep, you took those trophies, with all your superior knowledge and skill. I belong on eroding granite, among the pines.
