I started out using standard 55 gr Remington High Veloc. soft points with satisfactory results. I now have gotten into reloading and use 60gr Hornady soft points with 35gr of IMR 4064. I find that this combination will throw the 60 gr the same as the store bought 55gr at 150-200 yards allowing me to switch between the two if need be.
