I got a smaller ES using magnums. Didn't make much difference to velocity. Velocity dropped to 2760-2790 in a factory 24" barrel. No info on anything shorter sorry.

There's not a lot in it in terms of performance when comparing factory ammo. The WSM uses less powder and has a more efficient case design, sure - but it's also loaded to higher pressure and that's...

The way I've had it explained to me is that TBR doesn't account for the bullet having to push through the LOS distance of air. An uphill 600m shot might have a TBR of 550m but the bullet's still got...

If you're just gonna be firing one or two shots at a time, yeah, DPT. Though I agree they normally need an extra baffle or two to drop the sound to the point you'd be happy to take a couple shots...

Taken one red hind with a 130 VLD Hunting at 325m. Left the muzzle at 2930. Performance was fine. In behind one shoulder, out the middle of the other. 1" diameter exit. Deer looked sick and stumbled...

So I decided late last week to head out and look for a deer over the long weekend. There's a block which I've scouted out a couple of times and found some sign although never actually seen deer...
