Verified the 120 TTSX with RL16 today in 6.5 CM.

Same here with the range limit I mentioned. I called Barnes and the said the minimal expansion was
1900fps which would occur at about 550. So if she limits her shots to 300-400 max the expansion should be there. I plan on her practicing out to 600 to gain confidence.

Sounds like a good plan!

Took this load out to 350 yards today. First time ever shooting that far. Was trying out a new custom turrent and was happy seems to match up perfect. I learned one thing! I need to practice on the fundamentals. Really so much difference between 100 and 350 yards lol. Used 8" shoot n c targets to roughly mimic the size of a whitetail vitals. And definitely need to focus on my breathing too. I'm gonna go back a few times this next week and just shoot groups at 350 to work on the basics. Need to fix me up a portable shooting bench though, the rickety old picnic table I used today was not very stable. Have much respect for you guys that shoot really long range!.

not bad at all . your elevation looks to be about perfect . the longer distances you shoot , the more solid the rifle needs to be . be careful doing this , the long range bug will bite you . shooting far is addicting .

Yup, I'd say you're near fatally bitten, Cleveland.

Fine work.

Thanks gonna be trying it again tm. Think I'm gonna shoot from the bed of the truck this time instead of the picnic table. It was really fun and I enjoyed it, but it was very evident I need a lot more practice lol. Pretty much gonna have to take my time on the fundamentals!
