R26 and 103 ELD-Xs are looking promising in my 6AI. I have not clocked them yet but guessing 3350 fps or there about. If I pushed I think I could hit 3,400 fps but I don't want to have any hot weather issues as the plan is to use these on called in Axis deer in June when it starts to get pretty warm around here.
95 gr. BT worked well with R22 but will switch to R16, R23 or R26 whichever shoots the best.

BTW we get 5 whitetail and 1 mule deer tag here so I am fortunate. On some of the MLD managed ranches it is unlimited or one deer per 1 to 100 acres. One place nearby has a quota of 103 deer a season just to keep their management status, unfortunately (for me) they only let kids do the culling.
