    I have used Federal 165 gr BTSP and never had a complaint. I also found a box of 168 gr BTHP Match ammo once. Those were brutal but I never could find another box. Think they were Hornady.

      Roll my own with Nosler 150 grain hunting ballistic tips. I have tried heavier and different bullets but my Remington 700 likes these best. I haven't had any complaints from the deer, pigs and coyotes that were DRT either.

            weight wise, whatever shoots most accurately out of your gun. My marlin likes the 180's a bit more than 150s. Just make sure its a bullet type correct for the animal you're goin after.

                                I'm glad someone else still shoots moly

                                150's are fine for WT deer
