Just an " FYI " .. on using " Premiun Bullets / Copper or Brass " .
Here's some additional information to consider:
" Q. How effective can the Savage 10ML-II actually be downrange?
One of my favorite loads is a 2160 fps arena
300 gr. Barnes MZ-Expander, pushed by 46 grains of Accurate Arms 5744. That is a 200 yard 6" kill MPBR range load, retaining nearly
1500 fps and 1500 fpe on target at that 200 yards.
We can get more out of our Savage by using 60 grains by weight of Vihtavuori N120, pushing a higher BC Barnes "Original" .458 45-70 bullet, with an
orange MMP .458 sabot. That is about a 2300 fps load, has a 220 yard maximum point blank range, and retains 1743 fps and 2023 fpe at that 220 yards.... "
