This is a .30 cal 150TTSX @ 300 yds. 3150 fps. They work just fine up close. In the vid it looks like I hit it a bit back but I was angling for where I wanted the bullet to go. It went right...

300WSM is a bit like 284 in the sense that it's designed to work in a short action but it really comes alive when you can seat the bullets back out towards long action lengths. With that in mind,...

It'll be fine. Keep it under 300m. Break the shoulder bones. I'll add : 130gr Swift Scirocco's are the bees knees in the 6.5x55. I've killed some bulls with them at 2600fps from the muzzle.

178 gr ELD X at mag length, Hornady book load with Re 17. Nothing has walked away, 30 metres to 500 metres. Doing 2840 fps. That's 20" barrel, so you'd get 3000 fps easily I'd say. Funny you ...

Hunting will always be better if you are fly camping. There's bound to be deer around the hut though.
