Anyone here kill anything (especially a deer) with the 140 Berger Hybrid in 6.5? I got back from AK and my wife and kids had remodeled the house. I can't find any of my 6.5-284 ammo; Must be a box somewhere hiding. I had to make something. Today is the only day I had to shoot. I loaded up 7 cases with 140 Hybrids and went to the range. No idea what I last sighted this rifle in with but the first 3 shots hit the center of the orange dot. I found a few 140 Accubomb loads and the one round I fired was about 1.5" low. I guess I will load up a box of the 140s in the morning before I take off- just hope I don't have a runner after I poke a hole in a coues this weekend. I haven't done much more than play with the 140s a few years ago at 800 yards. Always used 130s to hunt but couldn't find any of my R17- the powder of choice for the 130s so went with the 140s.
