[QUOTE="Wedgy, post: 1372724, member: 64108"] I would hope for a one shot drop but at 1,000 yards I would shoot him again until he's down, even if I had shot him with the .338 as it's hard to tell exactly where you hit him, and I don't want to track him with that big of a head start, especially in the evening(although this looks like it was a morning hunt ?) Sometimes they stand there for a while then collapse and I'm pretty sure he wasn't moving for the 2nd shot. --------------------------------------------------------- Regardless, TMT307 congratulations on a nice bull ! That's great speed with one of the most temp stable powders available. Do your drops match the advertised .796BC ? I've been thinking of switching one of my 300 RUMs to a 7RUM for big heavy non lead bullets but am waiting until I shoot the 9 twist barrel out(needs an 8 twist). Currently it pushes 143 grain Hammers at 3,600fps with RL26 I did find this while searching for 28 Nosler brass(about ~$3 each on gunbroker) [URL]http://www.shootersproshop.com/nosler-products/nosler-blemished-2nds/nosler-blemished-brass/nosler-300-saum-unprimed-brass-blem-50ct.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
