Here are the last ones I have gents. My buddy was shooting his 300WM with RL22 and the 200gr PT's. They were running right at 2950, so they were really getting it! I know the RUM and WBY's could move them faster, but that close to 3K is still impressive and would be enough for any larger game tackled with the rifle/bullet combo. I am kinda getting bored of testing PT's cause in reality, I know what they are going to look like almost everytime. That is a good thing to me. I have alot of respect for the PT and it is well earned by them. They are very reliable up close and farther out. Anyhow, here are some results.
Here is the video

Next up was my son shooting the 85gr Sierra GK as loaded by Federal in their Premium line. The ammo was kindly donated by Charlie (OT3). I won't say the Sierra is tough, but it did destroy 3 jugs and spit its core from the jacket. To be fair though, the skin of the plastic has to assist that more than it would naturally occur. So, any of you all looking for a cheap and accurate deer bullet, I give the little GK props. I have used it around 3200 before on some deer up North and it was shocking. It expanded like crazy, dropped deer fast and was found against the opposite side of the entry hole. It isn't made for raking shots or anything crazy like that, but it works well when applied well.

Here is an extra, just to give Nosler some more props.. This is the 180gr JHP shot out of Brian's 10mm

Anyhow, sorry for all of the videos, but I thought you would enjoy them. I am a crummy camera operator, but I had a ton of fun.
Oh, you Ford guys shouldn't park as close as I did my Dodge. I imagine it (Fords) may start leaking (peeing it's pants) when these heavy cartridges are going off.. Wouldn't want you to have to get a tow leaving the range!!! JK :twisted:
