trishbob,

I dont shoot 100's very often what I do use is :

Varmits
Hornady 75grn V Max and 57 grns AR2209

General hunting (up to but not including deer)
Sierra 90grn HP and 56grns AR2213SC

Deer
Nosler 120 grn Solid base(no longer available) and 51 grn AR2213SC

If I was using 100grn pills I prefer the Speer Hot core SP's and would run about 54grns 2213SC (start at 51 and work up)

Hope this is helpful

cheers
Rinso

The 100gn speer hot cor as Rinso suggested works best for me, using 56.8gn 2213sc with excellent results, also the sierra 87gn SP with 53gn 2209 works well also.

X WSSM,

What load do you use with the 110 ?
How do you find them for penetration ?

cheers

I use 48.5gr of 2209 and find them very good for penetration :)
