[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 1010279, member: 2011"] I've taken many mule deer and tons of yotes with them over the years. My loads were stiff doses of IMR 4350 and Norma 205. I went for velocity and settled for 0.75 MOA average group size over a lot of years. I stopped stuffing powder in when she hit 3190 FPS out of the 24" Douglas barrel. It took nearly 30 years to shoot out the barrel. I downed a young bull moose with 2 shots at around 60 yards. Amazingly both shots exited with vigor. The second shot went through both shoulder blades near the shoulder joint. I was amazed to get complete penetration. The down side of them was if I hit a dear in the boiler room it ruined the entrance side whole front quarter, rib cage and shoulder. i learned to shoot no closer then 250 yards. At that distance and much further she performed perfectly. Just tho't I'd chime in...... [/QUOTE]
