Ill let you know how it groups at 500 when I get a chance to go to the farm to shoot. Interested to see how it holds together. Im impressed so far with this combo and have been really excited about Vihtavuori powders! They have been great in all my PRC's 6.5, 7, and now 300. N565 & N560
Started to go after a higher node.. switched over to the ADG and the 78gr load with the fed 215.. found the happy spot with this combination. 3090 fps no pressure sighs.
Going to take it to 500 yrd when I can. Also would like to do a primer test also

Back from Texas and Im impressed with the terminal performance of the CX. Spot and stalk Nilgai… thick so no long shot 130 yds.
Slight quartering away heart shot. Not sure if I should post picture of the heart wound channel or not?
I expected him to drop but he took it like a champ and ran 50 yds and piled up. Weight retention is fabulous at 3,050fps MV with 130 yard impact. Almost complete pass through between hide and offside shoulder.

Thank you! Yturria Ranch w/ HFF. They are very alert and cunning quarry. Thankful I had the opportunity to experience and lucky enough to harvest this Big blue bull!

Back from Canada and the 190 CX performed flawlessly yet again on a bruiser Alberta whitetail. 300 PRC with the 430 yard high shoulder through and through dropped in his tracks. Bullet dia. Upon entry and quarter size on exit. Hell of a year this year. Blessed.
