I have always got very acceptable accuracy with the Power Points. In fact, I have a 7mm Rem. Mag. that thrives on 150 gr. Power Points. But, every rifle is different. I'd be very surprised if you couldn't get at least close to m.o.a. accuracy, especially since you have an accurate rifle to begin with. Remember though, 2 inch groups will kill deer all day. I personally won't compromise the terminal performance of a bullet just to shoot smaller groups.

The 64 gr. Power Points are really inexpensive. It couldn't hurt to try a few through your gun. If you don't get the accuracy you need, then try something else. Another "non-premium" bullet that I've heard good thinhgs about is the 55 gr. Hornady Spire Point, WITHOUT the cannelure. I have never used this bullet on game, but I do know of those who have. It seems to hold together well enough to penetrate on broadside shots.

Hope this helps. Let us know what you decide on and what your results are.
