300 Norma Improved/245 Bergers on a Colorado Mule Deer

[Piercision Rifles]

My buddy Blake took his 300 Norma improved/245 LRHT combo I built him and pounded this Colorado stud at 550 yds. Went 20 yds and fell over. The blood trail was visible through the spotting scope. Looked like you poured buckets out onto the ground. Exit hole was baseball size. Congrats man.


Shorter lead times and stuff ready to ship. Give me a shout.

How do you like the lrht vs the EOL on terminal performance?

Great buck, and a monster of a bullet! It’s cool to see the big cartridges still putting in work!

The LRHT has been giving extremely good results on game. Big holes and vitals turned to jello. I do tell guys to run a small drill bit into them.

What kind of velocity loss do you typically see between the 26” vs 22” barrels?

150 fps roughly. The 22" barrels generally hammer around 2750-2775 and the 26" is 2900-2925. You can push em faster but these mild nodes are a grain wide and benchrest accurate. My 22" barrel still has enough energy for elk at like 1300 yds. which is further than Id shoot at one anyways.

10-4. I have the debate with myself. I can’t decide between the 22” suppressed like I’ve seen you post or the 26” braked like seen

Ive had 22,24 and 26" suppressed rifles. 20-22" is all I have currently on the rifles I use for hunting. slower velocity/more drop is able to be calculated. I like the shorter setup for packing around.
