Re: Behind-the-bullet- 300-Remington-Ultra-Magnum

Well, the .45/3-1/4", .58 Springfield and slug Browning would be fun. The others, not for me.

My brother's Shiloh .45 3-1/4" really liked 62.0gr. Re#7, a stack of card wads and a 300gr. Hornady, I think it was- might have been Sierra - it was a FNose,not hollow point. Cloverleafs at 100 meters - tang sight only. That load made 2,260fps mv. and exited a bull moose, broadside. Mind you, it was a 3x3 - 18 months old and dressed at 370 pounds, sans feet, head, hide and guts. The exit hole was 1" in diameter with no meat damage.
The moose was only 40 yards away, so impact speed was quite high. The bullet performance surprised me.
