Nice work to all you guys; impressive!

code MUSA1024 gets you 20% off and is a little cheaper than midsouth.

Side question: any idea what the deal is with Midway and their coupons? I see products (like these TMKs) on their site saying "eligible for MUSA1024", yet I am not able to apply it in my cart...

Do you by chance have another code already entered that’s keeping this one from being applied? Works for me

I posted previously about a mule deer that I shot at 100 yards with a 80 eldm (3450 MV) where it ran a short distance and died, no blood trail at all. My first experience with this tiny bullet had me a little worried that had it run further it would have been an issue to track.

Since that time I was able to take a WT at ~60yards facing me, DRT.


Very impressed with the performance. No exit, minimal blood, but highly effective.

Fast forward to later that day and my hunting partner took another WT using my rifle at 440yards, also DRT with a high shoulder impact that would have been around 2500fps.

Entered right through the armour plating of a deer scapula

Nice exit right out the armour plating on the far shoulder...

Nothing but soupy vitals. I'm a believer and now developing a load for a 223 with the 77TMKs. I can't believe I'm saying this, but the 22CM at 3450MV almost seems overkill.

Thanks to all the posters and great info in this thread.

I had to call, had a useless birthday month code. The gals in CS were very helpful

Nice! What's your velocity and barrel length?

 

[Jesseb]

Code doesn’t work for me either. Tried everything and I don’t even see that code as an option anywhere on there site.

Not sure on velocity. 22.5” factory barrel
