SS, My starting point on the PH is 100gr (like I said she likes them hot) Have you or anyone else done any penetration testing on those new CF bullets? Our Doe around here, the ones we take anyway, are some pretty beefy broads.
Maybe I should have her go for pure lung shots rather than High shoulder. The same as she does for archery. That would be one thing less for her to think about anyway. She naturally loves that shot and practices it with her bow weekly.
Lemoyne, couple of problems with using the FBP 350 grain. One is I'm trying NOT to knock my child into last week
and 2 is with a 350 grain bullet in a 1/28 twist I need to seriously step up the speed to stabilize that large of a bullet. 90gr of powder would probably be the minimum to get that bullet to not flip. 90gr powder+ 350 grain bullet= pissed off daughter with sore shoulder and sore butt from being planted on ass. That sir would = pissed of Mother and Father with equally sore ass
My women are little (Except the oldest daughter who is an Amazon) but they are mean!
