JW we have more in common than initials. grin

I certainly can’t remember the years but I clearly remember gun writers saying pre internet
days the the 243/6mm cartridges accounted for more than their share of instant
drop kills.

I personally have had more I D aka DRT with FAST moving bullets.... as long as they open up
and don’t “pencil thru”.

Now back to Blood Trails.
