    Ran through my first set of handloads today, unfortunately ran out of time to do the full ladder but very satisfying to send my first handloads down the range (and not have the gun blow up on me either!). 162gr ELDX with RL22 through T3X Aspire 7mm RM chopped to 20"

    Another victim at the waterhole.
    This time I hit him in the sweep spot n down he went, that's the exit there.
    The rabbit is an exit side as well and as you can see the projectile does not expand very much at low velocity, that said ill take the better grouping with these. Just have to hope that in the not too distant future we can get 2205 powder with I believe is more suited for the 22 hornet.
