Dinky 90gr Lehigh Defenders from my 357 Sig, velocity runs near 1700 fps over Longshot in the big P226 Sig, barrier blind and ready to go to work, old buddy kept shaking his head! Yeah, they be some bad to the bone projectiles. I got some 68 gr. Lehigh's loaded in my 9mm's... DF

I took a nice bull moose locally at about 200 yards with a Nosler AB 260 grain with 71 grains IMR4064, R-P brass Fed GMM primers. Very accurate in my Cz550. The recovered AB weighed 161 graines, shot through the forward shoulder. And recovered in the off side. Last edited by Gojoe; 02/03/24.
