A school chum of mine, from long ago, recently took a very large Nilgai bull from 200M+ with a Husky BA in that caliber, using "the Texas heart shot". Into the rump & out the neck..= One shot, GYD.

Thanks, the 286 is another option. Have banged steel regularly to 600 with my 9.3 and 250 Accubonds so very comfortable with that combo.leupold CDS drives my friends crazy with that combo. They tell me the 9.3 is a 100 yard setup. 250 accubond at 2650 and a elevation turret prove otherwise.

Never take life to seriously, after all ,no one gets out of it alive.
