    6.5 creed moor bullet for game up to elk??

    Good to hear that the 123gr SST performed well. I will be using that same bullet out of my Grendel this year.

    best whitetail deer bullet

    I shoot factory Hornady 130 gr superformace out of my 270 win. They leave the barrel at an average of 3190 fps. They have always gone through both shoulders from 60 to 350 yards and thats on Mule deer. They have performed excellent and will continue to use them till Hornady makes something better.

    shot placement

    I hunt White Tail and Mulies with a .308 win and 270 win. High shoulder for me. Double lung shots are deadly but they run for a bit. I am done with pulling deer out of deep creeks. In my experience they don't go very far after a high shoulder shot. Sometimes they just drop.

    Match King- There are better

    I've had excellent results as well on coyotes. Several doe have been put in my freezer using the 75gr BTHPs and an old buck all under 80yds. They have all exited with great blood trails. That's why I thought the MKs would work. Definitely built different.

    Maybe thats why one of the exist wounds looked like a 3 inch knife cut.

    Match King- There are better

    Shot three deer 1) doe 100yds 2) doe 120yds 3) buck 220 yds with my LR 308. Every shot was fatal but all bullets did not expand just penciled through. When examing the buck I found the muscle above the lungs attached to the bottom of the spine had a nice clean hole through it. The buck acted...

    Vanguard wood stock

    Have you guys had good luck free floating and bedding the wood stocks? My 270win shoots 2 inch groups at 200 yds with me or my buddy pulling the trigger. Should I leave it. ( my buddy says I should ) Bed and free float. Buy a B&C stock
