The 120 BT and 125 PT would probably be my first two stops.

130 gr Nosler Accubond over 44 grs of RL17 with a 210 M Federal primer = 2900 FPS and 1/2" groups @ 100 yds Work up to this load...as it works great in my Ruger Predator, but who knows in your rifle

I've killed a few deer and pigs with this bullet loaded to 2850 and it works great. So far, my favorite 6.5 hunting bullet. John

Day in and day out the 125 NPT for sure. We have different weather than you and the ones in late Nov. can have ice and snow built up on them as well as a very heavy coat, I want expansion AND a hole out the other side. Muddy
