What are the particulars on the 6.5 ammo you are using for Caribou...?

Cold Trigger Finger

I've used 3 loads so far. The 140 gr Hornady SST pushed by H4350. It works , but blood shocks more than I like at close range anyway.
The 130 gr Swift Sirocco 2 and 130 he Barnes TSX pushed by Rl17.
The 140 gives over 2550 fps and the 130s are 2775 fps. That's with the 18.6" barrel.
I have not shot anything at true long range as where I hunt the max range to bou is just 500 .

Hilltop ; I haven't hunted with the GMX. But I do almost all my hunting with the original X bullet and now the TSX.

What have you hunted with the GMX, and at what range is it good for.
