Also, guys, thinking of having the regulation load be the Norma 160 grain Tipstrike load. Has to be a load available in Italy. And it's a fairly fast load (2789 fps).
160 gr sounds good. Exactly the weight I would use. Good compromise between the usual 140 to 150 grs. And the heavy 175 grs for larger medium game.

To me, ideally a double rifle would shoot parallel out to infinity instead of converging at 55 yards. They'll regulate out to 150 meters. But anyway, a fast load should allow me to slow handloads slightly and regulate further out. And while Norma ammo is hard to find, 160 grain bullets in .284 aren't (at least usually). Thoughts?
Yep the bullets ideally fly parallel and do not cross. Spot on. In the ideal world.
No idea what sort of bullets a "Tipstrike" is?
