Si-Bore Posted May 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Nice pics.What rifle did you use? I'm using a Barnard action with 26" Trueflite barrel in AI stock. My friend is shooting a Howa .204 with laminate TH stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si-Bore Posted May 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 (edited) Nice pics bet that 6.5 would blow make mess of a rabbit. At first it didn't because I was shooting 123g Lapua Scenar bullets. I wasn't impressed with the performance on rabbits so I developed a load with 140g Hornardy Amax bullets - they have no problems with expansion and in fact probably expand at least on par with the Vmax if not more! Check this out when shooting from a different spot on the moors: 140g A max on rabbits 140g Amax on a small head-on rabbit Edited May 1, 2011 by Si-Bore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
