Yesterday in AZ. Pre-64 M-70 30-06, 155 Scenar at ~3000 FPS. 400 yards. Sheep hopped over the edge and piled up in the bottom of a ravine 30 yards from where he was hit. Shooter is the guy in the middle. 34 years applying, finally drew. I was honored to be invited to help, and to do the handloading and rifle set up prior to the hunt. Rex

Score with the brooming is in the low 160s, nothing official yet. Bases were 14 6/8" Rex

Outstanding ram! Congrats TRexF16 for obviously great loads! What powder and charge? 155 Scenar, CCI 200, 59/H4350, 3.340" OAL (.010" off the lands), 2965 FPS, 3/4 MOA. He was zeroed for 250 yards. Range was dead on 400 yards. He dialed 3.5 MOA on the new Leupold VX3HD I had mounted for him (bedded the bases, then lapped and bedded the Talley rings), and the rest is history! 1950 vintage M70, and I had bedded the action and discreetly free floated the barrel, forend screw removed.
