    i would really like to try those sciroccos 165gr in my 308.. they are just so damn expensive @ R 1300 per 100.. i've taken the fact that i cant get interbond as a sign that i should go back to cup and core.. interlocks.

    that gs custom looks fantastic. unfortunately gerry is focused on international market now. the availability becomes a pain in the ass. or actually the waiting period.

    No man

    He did the responsible thing, as he knew the limitations of the bullet.
    Probably stalked backwards 200m before he could shoot.

    @Pirate - Not a shot I would normally take, conditions were perfect, no wind and a very steady position.

    @Messor - The A-max's are surprisingly sturdy for match bullets, much more so than Scenar's or Nosler CC's.

    @Dale - I have an accurate load at ±2750fps. I have not hunted with it yet but I need to shoot something biggish tomorrow, I'll let you know.
