[QUOTE="robtattoo, post: 1111055, member: 89538"] I've been loading for my 6.5 Swede for a short while now & so far the most accurate load I've found has been with 100gn Amaxes pushed to 3090fps. Does anyone have any experience with this bullet on medium game, either antelope or deer? I've still got to try some 140gn VLD Bergers, but every Nosler or heavier Hornady I've tried, patterns rather than groups. It seems like this barrel likes a short bearing surface so I have high hopes for the VLD but I'm only 5 weeks out from an antelope hunt & I was considering the Amax, as light as it is, as a 'just in case'. I know it's hell on coyote & foxes, but that's the only thing I've shot with them [/QUOTE]
