I just wanted to be post #501 on a thread I figured would get locked long ago.
Got nothing to add.
Carry on.

Fail.
But what about gawking at projectiles recovered from water-filled milk jugs?This is how bullets should be talked about.
That's pretty impressive. What would you estimate your impact velocity was?Exit hole.View attachment 234564
Why would you use a match bullet? That's just risking wounding the animal!View attachment 234673
Right side, humerus, ribs, heart, stopped on opposite side.
Thank you , info is much appreciated .Not even close. They are yaw dependent (don't fragment nearly as consistently as the TMK), don't start fragging until several inches in, don't expand, have a lower ballistic coefficient, higher fragmentation velocity threshold, and fragment less overall. They are worse in every way except price and maybe precision. 77gr OTM will still get the job done, but the TMK is a far superior bullet.
Congrats to your wife! That is a great looking bull.Over the last year or so my wife has had the good fortune to be included in numerous opportunities to train and develop her riflemanship and outdoor skills. We’ve been blessed with good friends who’ve fostered this evolution and continuing journey and are extremely grateful for these opportunities and relationships as they all had a direct influence on the outcome of her bull moose hunt.View attachment 234670
77 TMK 168yds
You should change the thread title to Deer, Bear, Elk, and Moose. That'd rile people up!It was her choice to use the 77TMK out of her rifle. The choice was cemented at dinner the evening before departing on her hunt while discussing with friends rifle and bullet options. She was told ‘it couldn’t be done’. She knew better and decided at that moment there was no other choice. Lol.
Details?Minds are going to explode.
I shot 3 deer with a 200 grain eldx. Is it sad I got better performance including penetration out of the 77 TMK?
I had some splashy performance from 200gr eldx out of a 300 win mag. Didn’t make it through the spine of a buck or a humerus of another.Details?
