[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 930416, member: 5219"] Who says this long bullet should be destined to be shot from those long magnum cases? Nice job getting it to shoot so fast. Last year I posted that I had found an accurate load with my friend's 300 WSM 22" Browning A-max with Boss using RL-17 and the 230 hybrid. Velocity 2720 fps. I had to keep OAL short to fit his 2.8" mag box. The joke is that the bullet is sitting on the flash hole. (see pic) My 85 yr old friend shot a cow elk at 300 yd with this rifle. Shot was behind both shoulders with exit hole of 1 1/2". The cow took a step and within a few seconds it just tipped over. It didn't collapse but leaned till it hit flat on its side with legs extended. It sure spooked the other cows with it.
