I’ve got a sporterized Turkish 98 that I hunt with. Accuracy wise I’ve had good success with Sierra 170gr spitzer with IMR4064, and 185gr Remington core-lokt with BLC-2. Both of these loads are on the heavier end, not light plinking loads. The 170gr Sierra has performed great on deer and hogs, but the 185gr Remington has had poor performance, and I will not hunt with it again, only target. I tried 150gr hornady spire points out of it at one time, but they didn’t shoot as well for me as the others. I’m sure if I put a little more effort into the load development I could find a load that shot moa or better.
