I am doing my research to find my starting combination for hunting Minnesota whitetail with the 6mm ARC. I use Hornady SST's in every other caliber I own with very good results, but the lightest bullet is the 123gr SST in the 6.5 Grendel. All I find is the 95gr SST for the 6mm ARC, but that seems a bit on the light side to me. Am I wrong? I really like the SST so I don't want to count it out before I even start. I am thinking about pairing it with IMR 8208 XBR, TAC, or CFE 223. Does any one have experience with the 95gr SST?
The only hunting ammo I find locally is Hornady with the 103gr ELD-X. And that is in very limited quantities. I don't have any experience with the ELD-X bullet. Any input would be helpful.
