Thank you all--

I am now decided to go with the 165 factory load for now--Exactly WHICH one remains to be seen. I have two or three different bullets on hand as components, mainly the Rem 165 PSP Core-Lokt and probably a few Sierra Game King hollow points.

I leaned toward the 150, principally so I could use military surplus stuff for cheap plinking. Guess I'll just sight in with the 165 and then see where the 147/150 loads shoot.

Very much obliged for the input.
