I run that for the heavy bullets. If forgot you mentioned you wanted 95 gr bullets. Ya Proly won't stabilize those as nicely. Sorry lol

I want to shoot both, but I know at that velocity, it ain't happening. I was recommended a 1:8 for the heavy stuff, but that leaves me trying to convince the cartridge designer to get me load data on the heavy bullets. He built it as a game cartridge, and he doesn't see the target use for it. It's a 6.5-06, except it'll push a little faster. That and I like it because it's different.

Buy a Savage 116 Trophy Hunter XP package rifle in 25-06, 270 or 30-06 ($583 - Buds Gun Shop). Send in the current $75 rebate form to Savage Arms. Sell the Nikon BDC package scope ($75+), SS sporter barrel ($100+), synthetic stock ($35) as new take-off items on Ebay or list in the the classified section (paid members only) on this site. Use the new SS Savage 116 action for your build. Order a SS match barrel from a site vendor.
