Well, I had a chance to shoot my boys 300 Weatherby yesterday after adding some for end pressure.

Anyhow, I had a couple of test rounds loaded up and figured I'd run one into the jugs..

No real surprise here, just good old performance.. Plus, it probably hit the jugs at about an estimated 3000-3050. Fotis would have a better idea about the actual speed.

6 jugs is pretty awesome big game performance. Wouldn't be scared to hunt much of anything with this bullet..





















Pretty good performance..

Without a doubt Jim. They seem to shoot decent from his rifle as well..

Picture perfect performance. That'll do for about anything you'd ever want to hunt in NA and much of the remainder of the world.

That is the classic load from a gun like a 300 Weatherby, I would hunt anything here with that load from just off the muzzle to way out there. Great bullet for sure........

Well those partitions are boring. Wonder what the 9.3 version will do? Any bets on boring?

Serious bullet, from a serious cartridge.

You're right Scotty - I'd hunt most anything with that combo.

Even rock chucks... :mrgreen:

Outstanding performance but it seems Partitions do that with boring regularity.

Same here. I bought a bunch of them a few years ago, but between not using them for too much I have traded a bunch away. Need to keep my eyes open for some more...
