    @Flyblown Once I got them to shoot in my 6.5x55 they certainly killed deer well and mostly exited.
    Shut up, get out & start pushing!

    Yeah those LRAB are pretty tough. My son shot a red hind at about 120m right through both shoulders with a 129gr out of his 260, it then cleaned up a healthy manuka bush passing right through a 2" branch. Didn't find it after poking around in the dirt bank
    outdoorlad and superdiver like this.
