As I mentioned above, this will be a hunting rifle and I plan to have deer on the menu (90-150lb whitetails). I mentioned the 77 TMK because of several positive reports I have read with this bullet and deer. Your suggestion on throating to a 60gr bullet at mag length is a good idea.
It seems you are going in two different directions........If you want to shoot the 77 TMK get it throated for that bullet,
would not be that good of an idea to throat it for a 60gr bullet unless that is what you plan to use.
