Shot a small doe with the 280 125 grain and found a small blood trail but lost it in the dark.

Norma's Kalahari bullet worked well for me this past season taking a mountain goat and a mule deer with the 120 gr .270 Win. I was very impressed with both accuracy and on-game performance. However, I did not have to trail either of them though, which is a good thing.

Had to try the 150 grain Kalahari ammo out of my .30-06 as well. Not too shabby of a 3 shot group at 100 yards. Need to move a click or so to the left though. smile

I'd like to try the 6.5x55 load they have. I've been loading for the Tikka here at the house, but I ain't above shooting factory in a pinch.

Must have been a lucky group. Everyone knows that Blasers don't shoot that well... wink


Nice shooting Craig.

I have only shot the 120-grain .270 Winchester load at targets and into test media. It was very accurate, and the bullets expanded nicely--and penetrated deeply.
