I have to get up and do a dance on the short starter to get them going. But they load well enough with the CR's and shoot dang near on top of each other with both of our rigs.

I've got a buck in mind for next season that will rival a Saska Canadian in body mass if he bulks up like he did this year. He'll be 6.5 this year with just a 145" 10 point 6x4 weird looking rack this past season. I want to crush him with a pretty stout load.
If i shot him with 130grns of Bh209 and a 200grn Bloodline he wouldnt move. If he did it wouldnt be but 10 or 20 yards tops. And i would shoot him behind the shoulders nothing fancy.
