A few weeks ago I shot one with these I had handloaded in the Ruger Compact 308 . MV was 2700 fps , maybe as low as 2675 with the temps. at the time . At a hundred and some yards the bullet entered the short ribs and exited the point of the shoulder . The exit hole was only 50 cent piece size ... Bang flop ..... I would use fmjs in a second , but this is Alaska . I,m going to get a bunch of the 147 gr FMJ BTs and molly tumble them . load them to 2700 fps and see how they do ... The 150 gr Re CL are too much for a fox [beeep] . Learned that the hard way . 2 " exit hole .
