Thanks for the reply and info. I do have the 286gr hornady ammo, as well as some 286?projectiles for reloading with some ppu brass I have collected, expecting I would need it, as commercial ammo for tho gun seems scarce in my neck of the woods.
I see it is tapped for a pic rail, and it came with one, however, I may go iron sights on it for those ranges. I'm betting this will drop a large piney woods rooter clean in his tracks. Most shots here are sub 100 yes, last hog I took was maybee 65 yards, maybee a hair less.
But I'm open to all ideas! Thanks for the reply and information, I appreciate it. Any one else liking to comment, I'd live to learn from your experience with this round or rifle.
