Didn't you mention you converted to 6mm relatively late in your hunting life?

After reading your post.......I will have to admit, a lot of doe Pronghorn fell quickly to the 95 grain Ballistic tip.....both .243 and 6mm........in the hands of my then-young sons.

Later, found the .260 to be superior, for a youngsters starter rifle.

For the bigger stuff, prefer larger caliber bondeds and partitions. Premiums, as the experts say.

For the self-proclaiming experts.......please send an email address or phone number.........just a couple thousand pics. May be a phone pic of a hard pic......but you'll see the rifle and animal.
