One-shot success, so there is that. wink


That might have be been Luke's wife? I think I remember that, and it was a 180 grain fusion.

Luke and I over 10 years ago, tested out various 200 grain bullets out of the 308 as a bison legal load. We found that the boat tail bullets were too long, but the flat based spitzers did great. We used alliant 2000 Mr using 200 grain partitions, getting 2450 fps from my 20 inch barrel savage. Luke got over 2500 fps from his 22 in barrel Kimber Montana.

I eventually sent mine off to come back a 358. I think Luke sent his off to become a 358 too.
