SCGN- congratulations - I surely love my little Big Bore '94 top eject, same calibre.
: 2 moose early 80's with 220gr. Hornady FN's at a mere 1,940fps, light load. One went 1-1/2 steps, the other 4 steps.
: For a pointy bullet, there now is a 225gr. Hornady SP.
: Accuracte Arms 1680 will give the highest velocities;
; I now chose a case full of either H322 or H335 with the 220gr. FN, Neither is top velocity, but they shoot more accurately in my carbine, both holding 1-1/2" at 100 meters, with the express-type sight I filed out form the factory one, ivory bead up front. With the performance so far, they are all that's necessary for moose or elk. I would not feel undergunned for bear, either, including griz.
