The 105-110gr bullets are going to cut the wind better if it’s windy out.
I rebuilt an older Savage 112V from the 70’s. The new barrel is a 7 twist (I have no intentions of shooting bullets lighter then 105gr.) and with 5R rifling and chambered in 6BRA. The rifle easily shoots in the .2xx’s at 117 yards (shortest target I have at home). I’ve only shot it out to 430 yards and it will do anything that I want it to do. If my son or wife wants to go to a F class match is a easy shooting gun that they can use for any distance.
Good working everyday loads with 110gr ATIPs are coming out at 2822fps (barrel is 26”) and 107SMK are coming out at 2882fps.
