After shooting some very good groups with the 325 FTX I had it dialed in at 2 1/2" high at 100. Shot at 150 and 200 today and confirmed POI. about an inch high @ 150 and about 1-2" low at 200. Largest group at 200 has been 3 inches. Many sub MOA 100 yd groups and a 7/8" group at 150. Very nice.
This load (70 gr H4198 - Harv CR - and the .458 325 gr FTX) has been by far the most accurate load out of my gun ever. I have a feeling it will be a huge grenade up close at the speed I'm getting but with all that mass, deer will die.
NY opens this coming Saturday and the Savage will be ready.
Good luck you NY'ers

A 300+ grain anything will kill them with a boiler room hit. Good Luck!
