I am completely new to 6.5 and reloading. My buddy is a heavy reloader for 223 rem 75gr for pigs. The two bullets I have listed above (123gr HPBT and 100gr HP from Sierra) are the ones I have on hand to reload. I am leaning towards 123 only because of there are factory loads available if by some chance I run out of reloads. My questions are,
1) Is the 123gr a OK/Good choice from some dead pigs? Here in Tallahassee, Fl we are very close to the plantations and they just want them gone.
2) What would be a good powder to use? I have seen so many numbers as I search so I figured I would just ask.
3) What range would you zero at? Shoots will be made anywhere between 75 Yards - 400 yards.
Rifle Info- 22" Bull wilson Barrel, single stage chip trigger
Scope - 6-24x56
Thank you,
