Nice find for 300 bucks.

Glad she wasn't hurt no worse than she was. I bet there was an underwear change involved at some point afterwards!

Congrats. Those scimitar antelope are beautiful

Good luck, but remember, it did not happen unless they are pictures to back it up! LOL

With all due respect, people do have lives outside of this forum!

Nothing like finding a "bolt of lightning" to hunt with. Partition bullets are great bullets for sure. I've used a great many down through the years. However, I rarely use them anymore. For my hunting area I just don't need a bullet like that.

Absolutely wonderful! Great memories

I see it on occasion around my area but not lately tho. Im glad I've got several pounds to get me by until it becomes available again.

That "over run" ad also says this Note: These bullets were made to OEM ammo manufacturer specifications and may or may not include a cannelure. While they don't offer a 7mm 160 gr E-Tip to the reloading crowd it looks like they could have made some for another ammo manufacturer.

My condolences. Statistics show that 17 veterans also commit suicide every day as well.

That 16 in barrel explains those velocity numbers. And yes, with accuracy like that I would be done with it! Good luck this season

@JMRhino That's a great group with that 120 gr BT. I also noticed your SD and ES numbers. My load numbers were like that as well, however I really don't get caught up in things like that, especially when accuracy is where it should be. Another thing, I noticed your charge weight was 50.5 grs...

I used the 150 gr Ballistic Tip, seated to 2.760 with the Big Game powder. I also have a great load with the 140 Sierra non-tipped Gameking using IMR 4895 or Varget

Yes indeed, however, 4895 may not give the best velocity in any cartridge but where Ive tried it velocity is very respectable and accuracy is generally outstanding. Whether H or IMR, 4895 is a wonderful powder that simply shines in many cartridges. IMO, Im not sure there's a better all around...

My condolences to you and your family my friend.
