Thread: Cow Elk 688 Yards With a .243

grumpy old man number 2 here
I dont have figures for 105 grn but do have for 100grn.
if we are generous and say they are getting a neat 3000fps (which is pretty much max for 100grn)
so we will stick to figures for the 100grn the 5% extra weicht possibly off set by less velocity???

start at 3000fps by 500 yards down to 1890 add another hundy down to approx 1740(500 figure from start of 2800) giving energy of 671 ft-lbs .68 sec in flight and 50" drop


good shot....maybe????
responsible.....yeah nah

plan B if she cocked it up or bullet drifted 6" back into guts?????? didnt see back up shooter in clip and dont think she had enough time/experience to throw that bolt and get back onto target if it went south going on the few comments made.... sure they are at altitude so rifles shoot flatter than at sea level but the room for error is huge.....
