I killed two bulls with that bullet. One was at 95 yards and the other was at 135 yards. Both bulls went less than 30 yards, and when hit they went sick(both were good behind the front shoulder-lung shots). I also shot one cow elk with the same bullet. But she was not nearly as big as the two bulls. But she tasted better!! :party0005: I did not chrono the load. But point blank to 150 yards with open sights is good enough for me. My best guesstimate would be 1500 fps at the muzzle. But that is a pure guess, backed up by no facts. I am sure someone here knows how to figure the velocity, but I do not. All I know is that the combination was deadly. But I do not shoot that load very much, it is a real kicker. The round knurled knob on the MK-85 hammer(long circular bolt-I guess it would be called a hammer) would actually draw blood on the webbing of my thumb and forefinger. We talked about this load before. I forget who it was, but somebody figured the velocity. But I forgot what he said. You do that when you get older.:D:D Tom. |
why would i laugh ???? the load works for u that is all that matters ..ps. i am 66 this year and can still walk for miles in the bush ...
