Been working on developing a load for the 165 AB in my 308 (Remington LTR) and found an extremely accurate load putting them in one hole at 200 and 1/2" group at 300... no bs

Lapua Brass
Fed gold match primer
2.80 COAL
45.3g of Varget

got to test them on a doe this morning, hit at 250 yards right behind the shoulder, exited in front of the opposite shoulder. Deer hit the ground, kicked and to my surprise jumped up and ran off.. about 30 yards.

I passed on a number of bucks and came close to taking a nice boar but didn't feel like messing with it..

Nice weekend of hunting indeed

didn't bother, nothing spectacular to see, just another dead deer
