    Interesting article.

    Bruce do you think the author is referring to this thread at the beginning of his article, or is it another one?

    @Flyblown There's a big one on the US Rockslide forum that attracts a lot of attention.

    You used the 64 Nosler Bonded, eh? Do you recall what powder you used? Ive got a hundred and might as well use them up, even on wallaby. They have not shot very well for me. Penetrate like mad though and slightly slow killers. But deer always end seem to end up dead after that sort of experience.
