They were absolutely deadly on hogs and coyotes and opened much more quickly -- and much wider -- than typical monos. I used them in a mildly-loaded .300 Savage and a .308 WCF as well.

The 110 grain CX that replaced it performs similarly but not identically, either -- at least not in my usage.

Here's a 110 grain GMX taken from a large hog. I'd have to dig through notes for details, but I know I used the 2805 fps/30-30 load and that the distance was around 200 yards.

Those guys are nuts. Money is no object for the hardcore guys. Here's one I Cerakoted for a guy. In this case instead of a drop-in choke the entire barrel is a "sleeve" that drops in.

In any case to answer the OP's question, they don't make them like they used to (e.g. test fire)

MN DFL state senator Nicole Mitchell charged with felony burglary Nollij 04/25/24
Mitchell Impossible charged with felony burglary

This is too much to write about. Read the link and accompanying articles if you care. She breaks into her stepmothers home at 4:30 in the morning dressed all in black, and with a taped up flashlight, to supposedly perform a welfare check on her “alzheimers addled” stepmother. It gets better from there. Her Dad recently passed, and she decided to steal some crap back from her evil stepmother. Charges were filed, and a restraining order signed.
Ahhh….the lies and double standards of the DFL commies in this state know no bounds. Today the DFLers are all concerned about due process for Mitchell, but had no problem passing red flag laws last year that could remove a persons private property without the first hint of due process.
She is already being called Mitchell Impossible. The DFL spin machine is working overtime. Our precipitous slide continues. I would hope that justice is served, but she is a DFLer. 'nuff said.

I used to get a burger at In-n-Out in SoCal and Whataburger in Tejas way back when they were good. Best burgers at any chain in Sweet Home is the 1/2 lb at Full Moon BBQ.

Re: DATA POINTS H-414 & w 760 Mule Deer 04/25/24
Haveyou tried different lots of IMR4831? It will also vary, like any powder.

It's also more temp-sensitive than H4831, which can also make a difference in a double. Have experienced that more than once--and doubles are often used in hotter temps. Have found more temp-resistant powders tend to be more reliable in doubles. Though of course some POI variation usually doesn't matter much on the animals usually hunted with doubles, due to their size and relatively short ranges.

H414/W760 is far more temp-sensitive than IMR4831.

Re: 6.5 CM Loads - 120 grain bullets captjohn 04/25/24
I would like keep it under 2.800 because that is the typical length of the 260 Rem. and that does work in this arrangement.

Re: Garmin Xero and Boat Tails Mule Deer 04/25/24

It seems like I remember MD having this same problem with a LabRadar and .224 boat tail bullets. Is there a fix?

Actually it was some boattail 6mm bullet, maybe a Hornady ELD, which had a tiny rear end--and the Labradar has been reading other bullets perfectly before that, so was correctly positioned. I liked the Labradar in general, but it had too many limits (including velocity) to be of general use to me.

Had to take another chronograph along just in case that happened, which was generally a $130 ProChrono--which "read" the same bullet perfectly. And that was the incident that caused me to sell my Labradar....

Haven't tried a Garmin (or the new Labradar) and probably won't--due to being about 90% retired, and not having to shoot at a public range, so setting up a chronograph in front of the bench isn't a problem....
