As I say, my own tikka will stabilise 105grn bullets but I will always go to my .308 if I am after anything bigger than Roe.
Never argue with an idiot, he will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

My Steyr will stabilize 100grn with a 1/10 twist but not 105grn.

Thank you all for the input.
I'm still starting so I'll stick to the small deers for now...

I got hold of a few Nosler ballistic silver tip so I'm going to try those ones first 🥰
