Default Reloading Success

After 2 years of reloading I finally was able to shoot one of my loads and take a game animal (hog). It was a .277 Sierra Pro Hunter 110 grain in my 6.8 Bison Armory upper. In this load i had 28.5 gains of H322. Coal. 2.260". I'm not sure the velocity(really would like to know), but accuracy was there and so was performance. I aimed right above the shoulder and the angle allowed to make pass thru right behind the other shoulder. Needless to say the lungs and heart were done for and the hog dropped in its tracks. Very happy and even more of a trophy with it being my own made cartridge. Even though it was a 100lber, still better than nothing. Can't wait to shoot a bigger one and also can't wait for deer season!

My brother and I doubled up, so I didn't take them both.
