Thx,

Ruger .300WM, 3033fps.

Not many left now so will switch to TTSX as I've had to do with some other rifles/weights.


Many thanks! I ask because I got a great buy on Federal Premium .30-06 w/180 MRX and am really wondering how they will perform at the 2550-2700 mv they will probably run from my 22 inch barrel.

Make sure another animal isn't standing behind the first! We have yet to recover an MRX or TTSX, whether 100g, 140g, 168g or 180g.

Drove a 180g MRX stem to stern with exit through a mulie. Near as I can calculate with estimated range of 350 (POS Leupold RX-IV rangefinder wouldn't get a reading, kinda glad I lost it), impact velocity was 2359fps.

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.
