Received some handholds from Chad at Dallasreloads. 300WM 190gr berger vld hunting in norma brass. Have fired 3 rounds, 1 was to check the zero on my gun and the other 2 were on hogs. Hog 1 was a boar slightly inside 200 yards down hill shot and the hog was facing away, shot him in the back of the head, and as a result the back of his skull (and other brain material) was forced out of the front of his mouth. The second hog was inside 120 yards and was shot right behind the ear, leaving a hole nearly the size of a softball. Needless to say I'm pretty ecstatic about the ammo. Thanks Chad, y'all give him a shout he's got the good stuff!

Going back out today, going to shoot some 130grain sst's in my 270. As for having enough gun, i was just wanting to see if there was a difference in dead and SUPER DEAD LOL. Figured if their heads exploded i wouldn't have to bleed the carcass Overkill isn't even really a thing hahaha.

Received some handholds from Chad at Dallasreloads. I have heard that Chad provides pretty good service, but I didn't realize that hand holding was part of the deal. I'm impressed !!
I have two unwritten rules: 1. 2.

Apparently there are no hunters on the autocorrect software staff!!!!!
No prayer in school....What's next, no thinking in church? It's not just about pie in the sky when you die. It's also about steak on your plate while you wait!

You should be good to go if you run across any tyrannosaurus rex's.

Not that is the definition of DRT! Almost looks like a 50 cal hit it.
Great shots by the way!!

Pretty devastating! I just bought a 300WM for elk hunting and plan to give it a go for some pigs in a couple weeks.

well BrianMc, i can guarantee that rifle will not let you down when it comes to pigs. I haven't used anything smaller than 180gr yet but as for everything i have shot with that rifle, every single animal has dropped, EVERY ANIMAL!
let's hear the new bullet name!
