Thanks Horsey!
@2236
100yds- 1504ftlbs, 1994fps.
150yds- 1335ftlbs, 1881fps
@2270
100yds- 1552ftlbs, 2028fps
150yds- 1379ftlbs, 1912fps
I'm trying to balance what I'm trying to do with safety here. It's easy to get hung up on the tech (velocities, etc), that's why I post - there's guys here that have "been there, done that."

I'm not with it enough to try, what's your impact velocity at 150yds with 2236? 2270?
I don't think either load should be ruled out, obvious answer is the most accurate one, but I'm curious here, and I'd not rule out 170gr .30-30 loads for your objective, so a lil extra scoot should be wonderful. I don't get hung up on ft-lbs, bullet construction and impact velocity tend to serve a better purpose. I'd not hotrod the ol gal though, if you want to up the oomph, do so very carefully. Based on .30-30 speeds I'd guesstimate that anything above 15-1600 fps impact will work dandy.
