Got it. Looks like you're working up a great quick load. Elk or mule deer? Both.

I think Ingwe has put together a pretty good pig load: 150 gr NBT at 2500. I expect an Accubond would also work pretty well.

They lost cause they switched to 6.5 Carcanos and 8 x57s�if they'd have stayed with the 7x57 we would be anxiously awaiting Oktoberfest and girls in lederhosen�. OK�I had to rethink that�..

Sat in a different stand this evening. About 5:15 eight or nine little pigs came in, all in about the 40 pound range. I picked a nice little sow and put a standard 139 grain Prvi just low and behind the ear. The pigs scattered but her brother figured that without his sister there'd be more corn for him. I did the same thing for him that I did for his sister. Those little buggers are going to eat just fine.
Oh, and that obsolete old cartridge did just fine as well. [/quote] yes, but have you tried both rounds to see which one killed them deader?

My gosh,are you in the catnip again?! Everyone knows that the .30-06 is what the 7x57 wants to be when it grows up.

The .30-06 is the Freudian version of the 7x57�for those who feel inadequate about themselves�
And don't be hatin' on the catnip�its readily available�..

They lost cause they switched to 6.5 Carcanos and 8 x57s�if they'd have stayed with the 7x57 we would be anxiously awaiting Oktoberfest and girls in lederhosen�. ] Actually, I think we'd be speaking Spanish.
