Currently debating between the 105 hpbt and the 108 eld-m with either h1000 or R26 though I could be swayed to try other combinations.

Any advice on loads is appreciated.


is that a custom barrel Mallard or a factory offering..... I've been wanting to try a 1 in 7 twist barrel for one of the 243s...
I have a Pac Nor on a 6mm Rem with one.... I shoot berger 115 grain Match bullets out of it, using RL 19, which seemed to perform the best out of that rifle...
