A customer of ours posted this great video on our forum. It is well done and shows a once in a lifetime hunting situation that just never happens. It is pretty cool so I figured I would post it here on lrh. Shots were about 225y.
This past August, I did a Blacktail hunt on Kodiak Island with two friends. Like any hunt, it's a long story, but the punchline relevant to this forum is that my buddy Hunter is an extremely talented backcountry videographer and got a pretty wild video of us both punching buck tags within about 20 seconds of each other. We were both shooting Hammers I loaded- 6.5 CM and 7mm-08 for Hunter and me respectively- and the results speak pretty clearly for themselves. Both bucks were very large and healthy, and I hope this is a helpful terminal ballistic example for those who were asking about the effectiveness of these bullet/cartridge combinations on game.
Hunter also filmed, edited and produced a pretty cool short film about the hunt for anyone interested; more of his work can be found by searching "The Hunter's Quest" on any social network. Hope y'all enjoy!
