I have a client who wants me to deliver this rifle complete with molds and suggested load data. (dang I love this business!!!)
I need a 350ish grain boolit, and a 500-550ish grain boolit preferably Accurate Mold designs.
Any suggestions?
Also, t'would be a sin to consider handing over this rifle without some BP loads (its so close to the 50-110 its scary) so any suggestions on a good BP lube would be appreciated also.
I can figure out the other aspects fairly easily, but I thought you fellers might have some good insight to a boolit design that is a winner with this one.
Thanks!

Sounds easy enough! What kind of group did you get out of that combo?
