6mm /.243 hunting success on Big Game

Wonderfully detailed report! Thank you for the pictures. Much better than I take! I must ask, what is that knife? It looks like a very comfortable and light knife with a wonderful blade shape to make quick work.

I am still running an old heavy Gerber. It does not hold an edge but touches up quickly. Been wanting to upgrade but haven't. Would you pm me your thoughts on the knife as well?

It’s a proto S2H version of the Canadian Belt Knife. Can’t remember the blade material. Already in revision two.

If you need someone to test blades on a bunch of texas hogs, just let me know! Now that deer season is wrapping up, we are pulling out the thermals to gear up for hogs and coyotes!

Shot a cow elk the other day. 450 yds .243 ai 95 bt mv 3075 out of a 1:10 20” barrel with backcountry suppressor. Impact velocity approx 2199. First shot through shoulder made about a 2” hole entering body cavity hit front of lungs and shredded them. She took a few steps turned around and next shot was other shoulder. Caliber sized entrance, about a 2” hole in the first lung and 3” hole in second lung. In total less then 20 yds from where she lay to where first shot hit her. Sorry no pictures had the kids with me and at 10 degrees they were cold and I was in a hurry to get done.

Here are a few pictures I got after I got home of the shoulder that was hit. Entrance, and damage to the bone.

There's no way that puny bullet going slow went through that shoulder blade. It couldn't have had enough energy...

Just kidding and well done!
