I have a nice early 1960's 700 BDL in 6mm that I picked up for my daughter to use (she claimed it). I have been loading 95 gr NBT's and r22 for her deer load that was sighted in at 100 yards with a turret. Velocity was a nice modest 3070 fps with 3/4" MOA at 100 yards. Very fun rifle to shoot!

This weekend I loaded up some 80 gr TTSX's and a max load of IMR 4350 for a black bear stand load. I was contemplating a scope adjustment at some point right before bear season, but was giddy to find out that the TTSX load not only grouped just shy of 1 MOA, but did so 1 " high at 100 yards and with perfect windage. Got to love it when loads are interchangeable. Have not checked velocity yet but it should be north of 3300 fps with the 22" barrel.


Faith and love of others knows no mileage nor bounds. That's simply the way it is.
