That HE load clocked about 2,725 to 2,740 in my Montana. It's pretty stout.
Funny that hunting elk with a .308 and Nosler Partitions is sort of old fashioned. Please don't tell the elk. I don't want them to laugh at me.
That is stout... but not so far ahead of the same bullet handloaded. As Mark said, dfinitely 30-06 territory and I KNOW what a 180 Partition from a 30-06 does to elk!
Had I not bought a box of 150 TTSX's a few weeks back and gone through the sight-in/load-development ritual I'd just use the 180 Partition, knowing now what it's capable of.
