Chain saw spark plug wrench, how apropos.
I'd rather die in a BAD gunfight than a GOOD nursing home.

With 52 rounds down the barrel these are launching at 3450 FPS. I guess I should expect a small gain in velocity at around 100 rounds? At least that’s what I hear. Must be the moly that I shoot, as I almost never see any increase in velocities. However, the accuracy never seems to stabilize till I get to 125 rounds, give or take. For a different frame of reference, my 22x47 Lapua shoots 80 VLD's at 3370 in a 23" Bartlein. Have yet to take it deer hunting, but the coyotes will attest to it's abilities.....

I would agree with that. New barrels....... Dave

Yeah I don’t recall the Krieger speeding up on my 6.5.... I hear a lot of talk about it though. I can’t imagine what this thing will do to a coyote though

Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.

The next day, after we had an unsuccessful morning Javelina hunting we shot some quail then ate lunch. All the sudden we got some pics sent to the phone... Javelina at the feeder!! We take off on the Side X Side and haul butt over there. We stalked right up to 35 yards and I took the shot. Dropped upon impact. The other ran 5 yards and my buddy took him with his 7mm Mag. He hit him a little low and pretty much gutted him.

It was a great trip with some good dudes. I love shooting that 22CM as it’s quickly becoming my favorite rifle to shoot.

Crazy and tough hunt in Wyoming. Long shots were a must on this hunt with extremely skiddish goats. 450 yards with a 75 grain ELDM through both lungs. Internal damage was devastating. No exit. Ran 10 yards and dropped.

Good job Jud - that looks like a mighty fine antelope - heck of a nice cape on that one with that black muzzle. Appears your timing was just right to hit that nasty weather, have a couple friends there now chasing mule deers and antelopes.

Thanks Frank. Glad we took the sxs, roads were fuucked! Rain and snow, then thawed, quite the hunt. Looked over 50-75 bucks a day, for 4 days, didn’t see another person in the unit huntin. Very quality hunt.👍
