I am in the same situation as you. I hunt in PA and our shots here on the farm we hunt are a max of 300 yards, but most as within 200.
My son and I both have quite a few rifles including Tikka’s and some Christensen Mesa’s and most of them wear 3-9 FF 2’s and they have served us well over the...
I have a 6.5 creed veil and with 135gr Bergers I get 2960 fps with a case full of RL26. Also have a 270 win roughtech that with factory 145 grn eldx ammo gets around 2800fps, but with RL26 I am 200-250fps faster than that.
