[QUOTE="Clark, post: 446312, member: 6600"] I have shot thousands of ground squirrels with 223 with the bullet jammed into the lands. A ground squirrel at 250 yards is a harder target than a deer at 500 yards. I have shot both. In 2010 I was hunting with a 7mmRemMag 3.48", not 3.34", because I wanted the bullet jammed into the lands to get a little more accuracy. It did not matter much, the longest shot deer I took in 2010 was at 380 yards with the scope on 1.75X. Bart Bobbitt may shoot a 3" 20 shot group at 600 yards with his bullet jammed into the lands so hard that not shooting and then extracting, means spilling powder all over the action. But I only jam hard enough to get in there, but I can still extract the bullet. [/QUOTE]
