I lean toward 180 gr CoreLokt, myself.

I knew an old guy that claimed to have taken down a dive bomber with a BAR. I’m inclined to believe him.

“...I knew an old guy that claimed to have taken down a dive bomber with a BAR. I’m inclined to believe him.....”

A lot of those “old guys” were heckuva shots, especially the old sniper that prompted this thread. I’m quite sure that they got plenty of “practice” back then.
FWIW, if you’ve ever watched Hickok45 videos on YT, he did one or two videos on the BAR....it is a weapon of total devastation...a 30-06 full automatic. After viewing Hickok’s vids, I can believe the old boy took down a dive bomber with it.
