I shot them out of a 12 twist Savage 12, 22-250, 34 grains of IMR-4064, kissing the lands.

3/4-1" best I remember with 3/4" being the norm. Shot quite a few deer with those including my largest bodied whitetail, somewhere in the 250+# range.

Extremely short blood trails. In fact only ever had to track 1 deer, most died within 15-25 yards while quite a few were DRT.

All deer shot were under 100 yards so velocities were still high which I feel made a difference.


The last time that bear ate a lawyer he had the runs for 33 days!
