I am going with the 129 Hornaday and R26. I have so many other bullets to test out but probably won't get to them as this combo just flat works.

Use the same load for the 130 Berger and might go that way for antelope as the BC is higher and any wind proofing can help. With these and R26 you are in 270 Winchester territory which is a good place to be.
