.223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

Who cares about energy?

As long as the impact velocity is within performance parameters and the bullet is properly constructed AND most importantly I put it where it needs to go, I don’t give a rip about energy.

77 TMK at 2650 fps
2330 fps impact velocity
100lb doe

Double lung pass through, 30 yard scramble after hitting the dirt on impact. Pleasure to be able to watch it all through the scope with no interruption.

DB15 with 16” Larue stealth barrel wearing silencerco hybrid.

Correct. Both cut to 20”.
I have a Tikka that shoots really really well with a factory load I like. I’d like to cut and suppress it. If done correctly, what’re the odds that it won’t shoot that load as well as it does now? Is the idea that chopping a barrel could ruin accuracy yet another internet farce?

I just had every rifle in my safe but down to 20 inches. They all still shoot the same loads with similar accuracy.

Pretty much. Chop away.
 
I know it’s a long shot but I’d like to try it out and I can’t get any loaded before my Christmas deer season opens. Could I pay someone to send a box or two of loaded tmk or eldm to me? If so please dm me.
 
#2 for the AR
187 yards
Caught the bullet under hide. She was quartered a little more than I thought. Ran all of 30 yards.
