I finally have a couple of boxes of ammo coming in for the calibre. they are 285 grain pills.
Things have been held up as I needed the brass/bullets for Ben @ Hornady to make the reloading dies up for me.
I also wanted the ammo for Rolf Bachnick to ream the barrel that`s been sitting here waiting for love.
Rolf is a real pro and likes to do it right, the build will go to him.

Slowly unfolding!
 
I have now killed 5 animals with it. 2 red stags, a red deer hind, a fallow buck and a wild boar.

Not an expert, but like anything if you hit them in the 10 ring they are dead. If you miss the heart, and cut the lungs they bleed and run.

Spine shots are bang flop.

Sample size of 5, but I am happy with it.

I will be looking for a set of these when my .505 is done... sadly not cashed up right now for these. :(
Need anything in trade?
Cheers,

what kind of velocity does the 140 grains list, curious how they would fit in with my current 130 gr, supply of 270s. maybe a pic of the box data listing vel. and drop. Oh and complements on that ammo belt, nice.
