Not sure what the retained weight was because Daughter #3 took it home with her. I found it poking out of the flesh on the off-side. The two TTSX and the BT all left exit wounds. ...


Called Daughter #3 for a pic of the 110g AccuBond and was informed they left it in a cupholder in my truck. Mailed it off to her yesterday after weighing it at 53.3g retained.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
