It was up for a bit and then changed back. There is a walrus you’ll eventually see.Where do you see the title change? When I look I just see bear, deer and elk listed. Just made it to page 370 but hope to see details on the walrus!

I'm sorry if I missed it. But, what is the twist of the barrel that you're using for the 60gr?A bit of .223 variety from a hunt this evening. 100 yards. 60 grn Hammer Hunter. Deer ran about 30 yards.

Tired of seeing porkers get whacked?? Never. Jealous??? Definitely!75 grain SABRE from AAC. Shot from 14.5 and 11.5 barrel lengths at 50-100 yards.
Anybody tired of seeing big porkers shot in Texas? No idea of the weight of the big ones. Maybe 200+/- mostly CNS hits but a couple of the mid size ones were right behind the shoulder and didnt go more than 20 yards. All dead within sight.
The small ones were ripped open, I’ll save you the carnage but essentially disemboweled one and one had its back completely blown open down the spine.View attachment 737202

Lots of guys are shooting 1/8 Tikkas without any problems. Go for it. You won't regret it.Is anyone shooting 77gr TMK out of a 1/8 at distance? Looking to build a 20" Criterion but it's only in 1/8, not sure if I want to risk it.

My 20” 1:8 tikkas are shooting them just fine.Is anyone shooting 77gr TMK out of a 1/8 at distance? Looking to build a 20" Criterion but it's only in 1/8, not sure if I want to risk it.
Way off. Over 500 yards. I get 500 with 2710 out of a 16”I plugged in some number for 77gr TMK out of a 20" barrel and got a minimum expansion threshold at 210 yards? This seems way off as I was thinking at least 450 yards.
What's the consensus on ~1800 fps for 77gr TMK with a MV of ~2800 with a 20" barrel?

With Stand1 77tmk ammo, I get 2771fps MV out of a 16 inch barrel... which at my elevation (4500) gets me to 570 yards before it drops below 1800fps.I plugged in some number for 77gr TMK out of a 20" barrel and got a minimum expansion threshold at 210 yards?
