Not big game but called in a coyote and killed him at eight feet and still coming.

You have a twin brother here in Michigan.

Kind of surprising you even have some of those bullets. I think Hornady dropped them prior to 1964. I got lucky and found a few at a gun show and think about working up a load if I can find a few more. I have all the Hornady load manuals including #1 which shows that bullet as discontinued. I'm guessing probably 1962 or 3 is when they dropped it.

They show up from time to time on GB and the gun shows. Gun shops that buy whole estates or sell collections on consignment are good sources sometimes for some of the old stuff.


Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.
