It is near impossible to say what one rifle will shoot, but I think you are on the right track. You could try some powerbelts, thors, or other top of the line projectiles. I am sure Frontier Gander can help you out here. He shoots one and has been making it do some impressive things.

812deerhunter,
Just wondered what you meant by "i do ok"? Is "ok" consistently a couple inches at 100 yards or hitting a paper plate at 25 yards? I am sure the responses can get very detailed and helpful provided we know where you are hitting and where you want to get to.
