[QUOTE="436, post: 2571761, member: 16609"] That sounds like a tough critter, so of the 7 you only impacted on him with two or three hits? and only two of the two or three you mentioned were well placed? starting the first shot at 100 yards and you figure the last shot was 480 yards or so. I think the penetration could have been better with a little more bullet, say something like the 190gr to 210gr range. I shot a .300 RSAUN for years using a 190gr out of a 26.5" barrel, along with a few 200gr bullets. I'm thinking a 24" might not have been the best length barrel for it, just me. I would think the heavier bullets would perform a little better than the 180gr. Just my 0.2 Cheers... Thanks for the sitrep, appreciate it. [/QUOTE]
