I watched my #2 son put 10 165 grn Sierra Gamekings Hollow points into a group you can cover with a dime this Saturday, testing and zeroing for deer season.
Rifle is a Savage 111, bone stock.
Scope is a Burris C4
The load is 47 grns of IMR 4064, and the coal is book I believe.
Surprised me, I loaded that ammo for a 1903 I sold to a fella two years ago.
It shot 2" low and 2" right. Had to stop him before he ran out.. and he used two more rounds for a 2" high zero.
