All of the below is using MidwayUSA blem .257/90 gr over Hunter in my .257 AI @ approx 3350 fps:
Accuracy (before weight sorting) is GREAT!!
2013 dinkathon; shot from maybe 50 yds from above quartering away on a path meant to cause maximum damage. One shot kill, ran maybe 15 steps with a blood trail Stevie Wonder could follow
This past week 2 one-shot kills on hogs.
The first a medium-sized oinker (190 lbs) 100-ish yds to brain stem bang-flop pass thru
Second hog small shot in head coming straight at me at a range of about 125 yds
With the base of the bullet recovered from the ham
which I have yet to weigh, but given it impacted the skull, penetrated the full length of the pig and came to rest in the ham its "petal-less-ness" and lack of beauty can be excused.
