For deer and antelope the 125 partition or the 120 ttsx would be my choice, for bear I would go with the 140 partition.

I asked Mule Deer what would be a good bullet for deer sized animals, he suggested the 130 grain Nosler Accubond. I got a box, then loaded some up. I couldn't find any more available, went to a gun show and found 8 boxes of 85 grain hollow points. My 264 is now a varmint rifle. I will shoot it more than I would at deer, so I have another useful rifle instead of a once a year gun... ![[Linked Image]](http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee202/bridgershooters/123_3371.jpg) What powder are you using behind the 85gr hp. I load H4831 behind 85gr hp, 95gr Vmax, 100gr hp, 100gr ballistic tip and 130 gr vld. I am using Ramshot Magnum powder, getting about 3500 FPS...

In my .264 Win Mag I've had great results with the 125 partition, 130 Accubond, 140 accubond and 140 partition. My 6.5-06 just loves the 130 tsx and I wouldn't hesitate to shoot them in the .264 Win Mag if I had time to tinker with it.

Scenarshooter,
Those groups are outrageous but the JLK's is f'ing rediculous!

The people wringing their hands over Trump's rhetoric don't know what time it is in America.

I couldn't get 140 VLDs to stabilize in a 1-9" but I live at fairly low elevation. That rifle shot all other 140's I tried. 130 grain accubond at 3300 fps makes a great deer load. 140 partition for bigger stuff.
Politicians and Diapers both need to be changed often, and for the same reason!
