[QUOTE="biggdawg, post: 966766, member: 53781"] Just got back from my african safari and thought i would share the one barnes 200 lrx the Skinner's recovered from a gemsbok I shot at 300 yards full frontal. It hit 1/2 inch left of center just below the nose. he went less than 25 yards and pliled up. the barnes 200lrx performed flawlessly the whole trip. i was pushing these at 2948 at 1000 feet so at 4000 ft they were in the 2980 range. the gun was a 700 adl with 26" barrel, Boyd's light weight thumbhole varmiter stock pillar beded topped with a vortex pst 6-24x50. running norma cases with 74gn of H1000 edited to add weight of the bullet was 199.9 grains so it looks to have only lost the blue tip.
