Heym 450/400
Help Hornady Ammo
Hello Everyone,

I am in the process of ordering a Heym PH 450/400. Which Hornady load should I have this rifle regulated for; the standard soft point load or the new DGX load?

Thanks!

I can't see that it would matter, but we may get lectured to for some reason or another. They both have the same nominal velocity, supposedly.

I just ordered a 450/400 heym and don't remember that being an issue, so I assume it doesn't matter either way as Will suggested.

It shouldn't matter much. I'd probably have it regulated with the standard soft load, as you'll probably shoot more of them.
