Beartracker, are those targets at 50 yards or is that an optical dilusion (100 yd)?

I do like to make sure of my loads so I have complete confidence in the field that when I put my scope on what ever I am hunting with in my limits as a shooter that I do connect and make a quick kill.

I will be going back if weather permits this Thursday and will confirm my loads not only in accuracy but my fps as well as extreme spread. If all continues as is or improves I will have established a very good load in terms of hunting accuracy, velocity, energy and momentum.

They can say it but it sure does not make it so does it!!! When you load the 30-06 to modern pressures like the 25-06 and 270 due to better steel, and strong modern bolt designs you have a very, very versatile cartridge to boot. These velocities are reached in a 22" barrel. My Mark V 24" barrel has some very good 165gr loads over 3,000fps.
