The projectiles are no different than what is already offered in other 7mm's. Like always, select the appropriate bullet for the job at hand. Federal released this load with the excellent Terminal Ascent bullet. The cartridge itself has nothing to do with the questions of bullet performance...

He should charge y'all for as often as people ask him😆

Some may have seen this in the 7mm bullet test thread. I shot this old buck in Alabama on January 17th with a 168gr Accubond LR from a 7mm PRC. Members of the club had been calling him Unibrow and three other hunters had shot and missed him within the last couple of weeks. Great way to start 2025!

Ha, you're right, long range cartridge and bullet and a 6-24x50 scope and I shoot the deer under 100 yards. Honestly I don't plan on ever shooting a deer long range, I just like the equipment!

Whoops, I'll edit the post but it's a 7mm PRC.

I recovered another ABLR, this time in 7mm from a 7mm PRC. I do an annual hunt trip to Alabama to hunt with one of my best friends at his hunt club. We hit the rut just perfect and we saw tons of rutting activity. Two nice 8 pts were shot earlier in the week and one of the properties target...

Tons of good powders, just depends on what you want to do. Also, do you mean 225gr FTX? I believe Hornady only makes XTP's in .44 cal in 180, 200, 240 & 300 gr. I love the 240gr XTP's, they work well to plink as well for deer hunting. If you're looking for max velocity H110/W296 and Lil'Gun. My...

Sweet rifle, would love to get an M21 eventually. Did you mean 2-12? Or is it a VX-5?

Damn, that looks like an excellent combo and that bullet held together surprisingly well for that speed. Nice job. What are you shooting it out of?

I've also loaded 165gr Accubonds in a 30-06 with a similar velocity for a friend. He put down two large hogs with two shots in about 3 seconds. My go to load in my 30-06 Encore pistol is the 150gr AB or PT.

I'll second the Yildiz. A buddy got one of their 20 ga O/U's and its been a sweet shooter. No issues with it and he's shot a ton of skeet using it. Hard to beat for the price.

Awesome! I loved the 125gr Partition & 130gr Accubond when I had a 260 Encore pistol.

Excellent, well done! That's on my list for next deer season to get a deer with my 10mm Sig.

A 200gr 30 cal bullet at those speeds is hauling the mail for sure. It looks like almost every batch had very consistent velocity. I'd back off the 76gr charge since you're seeing ejector marks. Despite what QL says, your rifle may be at its max pressure for that combo. I think I'd play around...

Honestly I was surprised the bullet came apart like that since I'm sure the muzzle velocity wasn't over 2500 fps out of that short barrel. It definitely hit a lot more resistance than your deer though. I wonder what the impact velocity was for your deer at 250 yards? I have a friend and all...

I think nearly any bullet can have a bad day, but the premium bullets like Partitions, Accubonds etc just do it a lot less often. That being said, that was a pretty tough test for a bullet. A big hog shoulder and its shield, which was over an inch thick, is tough stuff! I've heard so many people...

Yeah I like that!

This is a recovered 165gr Core-lokt from a factory load shot from a 15" barreled Encore pistol in 30-06. This was one of the few animals I've shot in the last couple decades with a factory load. I ended up grabbing a box because the person I bought this barrel from said it was a consistent 3/4"...

Lol, if he couldn't get it done with the first two, I don't think 10 more would've helped 😅

Would love to see one of those put into some jugs.
