Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting .243 Win. and whitetail deer ???

I got a little moist thinking about what velocities I could achieve with RL26. To your question I would say that even on squarely shot shoulders most come out the far side. If it doesn’t then the projectile(s) are resting inside the far side shoulder. The longer range kills have all been pass throughs.

Full disclosure though I did kill a nice 10 point this year that I had to shoot running and landed a behind the shoulder shot. Upon inspection it looks to have grenaded on a rib and literally turned the entire thorasic cavity into a soup kitchen. Dead all the same with in a few strides.

I like the bullet so much that I load them in batches of 500. Shoot the hell out of em as if it was a 223.
