It's a good deer cartridge. Easy to form and accuracy is not tough to achieve. Quite a bit of load data has been accumulated over the past couple years.

Hey Guest, it looks like you haven't made your first post yet. Until you make an introduction thread, the rest of the site is locked to posting. Why not take a few minutes to say hi!
Possible build 25x6.8
I got permission from the boss for another barrel swap.
We have a 20" national match that doesn't get shot much. Our light barrel ARs are close in accuracy for our hunting purpose and much more fun to carry.
So I think I'm going with a 20" light contour in 25x6.8.
Plan is shooting 87gr tnt for varmints and possibly H322 for powder and 450 primers. I use H322 and CCI 450s in several calibers and have a lot so I hope they work. Saw a post where H322 was used with 100gr bullets with so so success but I'm hoping with a lighter bullet it will be good.

H322 isn't going to be the best option for the lighter bullets but it will work. With a 20" barrel you'd probably still hit 3000fps but you're losing a good bit of velocity as opposed to other powders.
