[QUOTE="Christian Wiseman, post: 1570934, member: 108874"] I shot this bull with a 2506 at 300 yards. Nosler ballistic tip. First shot broke a rib and went threw both lungs he was going down but still limping off so I hit him again and found the slug in the off side shoulder. Idk what the mv was as it was my buddy's handloads and his rifle but I'm guessing around 3000 fps so at 300 yards it would've had around 1500 ftlbs of energy and went threw a shoulder and the other went threw a rib. That being said would've rather used my 300 win its shooting a 208 gr bullet at 3100 fps hitting with 3600 ftlbs at 300 yards [/QUOTE]
