As I no longer hand load, 143 ELD-X was the heaviest load that I've found. Also, tack drivers. Penetration was excellent, btw. I like a "boring"...
My girlfriend used my 6.5 CM on a moose last week. The guide reassured me that it would be just fine. The moose took about 5 steps, then collapsed...
The Vortex scope and the 6.5 CM did their job well! My girlfriend shot a 500 + pound cow moose at about 35 yards. 4 power was plenty. Expected to...
Yes, no doubt, you get what you pay for.
My latest aquisition: A Vortex Viper 6 MOA Red Dot on my 1911 Colt Competition .45. So far, I like it a lot! I know, purists probably think a Red...
