I load the 64 gr Nosler bonded along with the 55 gr TSX with CFE-223 in a PSA mid-length house gun, those two bullets along with the Federal factory loaded 62 gr bearclaw bullet all land within 50 cent sized groups at 50 yards through an EoTech 556, I'm happy with that, very hard to precisely aim with the fuzzy reticle on that sight. I picked up some CFE 223 gonna give it a whirl.... Prob'ly about 26.0 gr with the 64 Nosler. Or the 65 Sierra. Or the 63 Sierra. (funny how that works)

I don't have long distance vision, never have.... form a peep with my hand to sneak a peek at without glasses always amazed me how much clearer things go.
Don't discount a peep, even if its only like a ghost... 10-4 Rost, and agreed. Give her a whirl Okie, it's been a good powder in the 223/556, and really good in the 400 Whelen with 400 gr Woodleigh softs and solids.

All I know is that the 64BSB kills deer with aplomb. It's more than accurate enough for that job, through any rifle we've put it through.

Good to hear, bet it'd make a hell of a self defense bullet as well, I need to test em on some homemade media.
