[QUOTE="choprzrul, post: 3071244, member: 121411"] My 26" Ruger #1 in 25-06 pushes 90gr Absolute Hammers to over 3600 with RL16. I've shot 4 deer with that load so far and none of them required a second shot and none ended up being more than maybe 20 yards at most from point of impact. 1 bang/flop, 1 staggered about 10 yards, and 2 ran in a short circle before piling up. Had another buck do the same circle thing when hit with a 6.5CM using 85gr Hammer Hunter going over 3400 fps. In 40+ years of deer hunting, I've never seen the run in a circle thing before. Now, 3 out of 5 deer I've hit with Hammers have done that. I find that odd.....but I really like not having to track deer now :cool: [/QUOTE]
