I recently bought a PSL, and I'm thinking I might want to take it deer hunting some later this fall. I've read that shooting 180gr surplus is bad for it because the gas system isn't adjustable and the 180's would batter the rifle.
So my question is, would 203gr. Brown Bear be ok since its a relatively light load @ only 2330 fps? (not to mention very reasonably priced!)
I realize that 150gr would be better and I wouldnt have to worry about damaging the rifle, but its not easy finding 150gr. soft points for 7.62x54R.
