[QUOTE="B-LOT Banga, post: 2109773, member: 106734"] My son just tried his tikka 270 wsm this past weekend and shot a feral bull (wild cattle) and 3 sheep with the 165 gr ABLR. With 60.2 gr of RL19 and a 3.050” COAL he sighted it in at 250 yds (0.73” 3-shots). The first was the feral bull at 149 yds base of neck shot (no exit) completely shattered it’s vertebrae only the boattail section with some lead resting on the far side in the neck muscle. First ram 308 yds complete pass thru both shoulder blades, exit 4” destroyed the lungs. Second ram 77 yds quartering away, entering on the last rib 2” exit hole on the far side again destroyed the lungs. Third sheep a ewe at 199 yds facing him bullet enters her chest and resting in her gut area, he didn’t look for that bullet. All of the animals dropped instantly. So far the 165 ABLR is doing excellent in his Tikka with a 1-8” twist. Hopefully he can get more animals to test the limits of this 165 gr ABLR. Aloha [/QUOTE]
