How about a Nosler accubond the heaviest you can find then push it as fast as you can handle, its a tough bullet for the 100 yard shot and they shoot well enough out of most gun to easily make it to 400 yards. If you wanted to target shoot or practice and extend your range go right to the 210 Berger VLD , 208 Hornady Amax if you can find them, 220 Sierra SMK are all great bullets. I shoot the 208 and 210 to a mile out of my rig.

Retumbo, Rl25,H1000 are the powders I have used. I worked up loads and they are all over max by the book but seem to be safe in my rifle as I have 7 firings in my brass with no problems yet.
