Mine likes Rem 405 gr bullets. I think you'll be very pleased. Check out the info on what sights to use if you want to shoot beyond 100 yds. Oh by the way- You don't need to shoot the killer high speed loads in it. My bullets average somewhere between 1300 and 1700 FPS. Easier on the shoulder.ENJOY
When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Better replace that butt pad if you want to shoot anything that kicks!

There are alternatives that work just as well.   ;)

I have the Galco with the lace instead of velcro to keep it more authenic.
