Another 1976 760 30-06. My best buck. With one my son got.
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong. Getting into reloading to save money is like getting married for free sex.

Welcome aboard GettingTime. Nice deer!
They say everything happens for a reason. For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

I turned some of my tax return into a 7600 in 243 to hunt the farm. I got this one in early in the year have been very happy with its cloverleaf patters at 100 yards. I passed on a big doe at last light yesterday, I’ll probably kick myself for that.

The last day of the Pennsylvania rifle season ended with a bang, I guess started with it would be more accurate. A little before 8:30 AM I had a decent doe and a couple of button bucks slip out of the brush and across the back of the corn field. The doe stopped at about 80 yards when the lead button busted my wife and I in the stand. It was too little too late. Got a really nice blood trail, but I watched her fall from the stand after a little 40 yard scamper so tracking wasn’t needed. I was shooting 95 grain tipped corelokt out of my 7600 in 243 Win.

How were the results of the new tipped corelokt?

I wonder if the tipped Core Lokt isn't just a Hornady SST? I know Rem has used alot of Hornady bullets in the past.

The shot was through one shoulder with the exit just behind the other. The damage into the ribs after entering and exiting the first shoulder was rather impressive I though, although I didn’t document it like I should have. Entrance. Exit. The size of the exit was probably a half dollar sized hole and as I mentioned before it was a phenomenal blood trail.
