6.5 Creedmoor/260 for Deer, Elk, and whatever else.....

Yeah, no. TMK’s for like weight will penetrate on average a bit deeper than say ELD-M’s or Berger VLD’s usually.

Last year I shot a cow broadside at about 170 with the 140 Eldms and didn’t get a pass through so this was shocking to say the least

Do we have any good wound channel pics yet of it at <2600 fps impact? Particularly smaller animals like deer size? I'm wondering if it doesn't do enough damage before it exits on something like that.

Wound channel pics of what?

The 130 tmk we were just talking about. Does it do a bunch of damage inside like eldms?

The first picture in the thread is a whitetail doe taken by the 130 TMK

Many times. Maybe it's all starting to blend together .

It’ll tend to do that. There are a few in the first couple of pages I think.

My sample size is not too large yet, but I think you'll be quite satisfied with the damage they do. I have 3 or 4 whitetails taken with them in this thread, from close to mid range with a 22" 6.5 CM, and all results have been messy and definitive.

What bit do you use for this? The ones i've seen at basic hardware stores always seem larger than what people discussing using on the internet.

I have a set of orifice bits for drilling out blanks for gas burners. I have worked in the HVAC industry for 40 years.
