yes, I handload
I have been running the 95g Barnes TTSX over 29.5g of RL10x for years

But I recently started running the factory Hornady 120 SST load as it's loaded as hot as you can get with handloads

As for illuminated reticles, I don't find them neccassary for whitetails if you have good glass and a bold reticle, and I hunt to 30 minutes after sundown (legal stop time)

For black hogs I do like an illuminated reticle, just a small dot that is barely visible.

The Trijicon and VXR scopes both do a great job with their illumination system.

I don't think dials and mil dot reticles are needed for the 6.8 personally for hunting.
I run a 200 yard zero, +1.5 - 2" at 200 and 3" low at 250

We are taking the owner of the SilencerShop and Templar Tactical Suppressors out.
