Whatever works best in your gun. =]

Try a few different loads at differing ranges, and your gun will tell you. I'm saying this while not walking the walk, because I go buy what's cheapest on that day and live with it. Haha.

Re: range results

Yeah I've been shootin at 50 a couple times now. Got tired of walkin to my targets lol. Put 10 rounds though a dime the other day. Nice shootin! And right out of the box. I'd put a Karstens cheek rest on there. Again, nice!
 
Re: range results

Thanks. I find a lot of your posts helpful! I am just getting back into rifles and have taken a lot off this forum! I will eventually add a 17 to my collection. For now my rimfires consist of a Savage 22LR and a Savage 22mag. I have read a lot of what you have posted about different 17 rifles and when the time comes I will definitly look for some advice for you guys on here. For now I am working on adding a Savage model 10 precision carbine in a 223 to the collection. When my wifes blood pressure goes back down after I buy that I will get a 17
