Vince went on a guided high-fence cow elk hunt. He brought a 7mm PRC using 145gr Hammer HHT™ and a 280AI using 140 Absolute Hammer™. A total of 5 elk were shot between 125-220 yards, 4 with the 7mm PRC and 1 with the 280AI.
Here's Vince's terminal performance report: "The 145HHT took 4 elk, 3 one-shot kills, one was a shoulder shot, so the hunter sent another and double-lunged it. All 5 shots were pass-through, including the shoulder shot, with the lungs turned to jelly. Quick kills, very impressive. The 280AI 140 Absolute Hammer performed perfectly. One-shot double-lunged, also a complete pass-through."
Vince also shared, "The guide asked what I was shooting at the beginning and gave me an 'ok, hope it works' comment when I said 140, 145 grain bullets. After skinning the five elk and viewing the results of both bullets, he said, 'you could tune that round down a little if you wanted to.' I had to laugh."
Thanks, Vince, for sharing your hunt and field report.
