[QUOTE="JuddL, post: 1788171, member: 110787"] I cut an 7-08 Encore down to 16.25” and run an AI reamer in it. It’s a fun little gun, great in the blind and a joy to carry. Last year I fireformed with 162 eldx. Seen enough penciling with Hornady’s that I wanted to stay clear. This year I went with 140 ballistic tips. It's killed 3 bucks (my two and a buddy used it) and 2 of the 3 went 40-60y with no exit and very little blood on the ground. I hunt mesquite and cactus, if they run away I prefer a blood trail. Been thinking about trying accubonds. But BT's are like a grenade went off in their chest cavity, they will die but you rarely will have an exit. If I was hunting more open country and I could see them fall it wouldn't bother me at all. [/QUOTE]
