Interesting stuff.

Bramble, FWIW you are running your x62 at exactly 100 fps more than I run my x57 and the 286/2100 loads have worked very well for me on deer, bear and elk {and coyotes and ground squirrels, too!

}.

I've seen the pix of yours and you obviously do very well with it! I agree 100% with your whole post.

Along those lines, I think a light MS 9.5 would be a delight for our country here. I spent the day today hiking, skiing and grunting over a whole bunch of country and a lot of elevation looking for bear sign and I spent a bit of time mulling over Naki's and ChrisPer's 9.5 Mannlichers...

Naki, when I test bullets, one of the things I find is that if the construction type is identical the longer ones normally penetrate deeper, but if the construction is different, the "harder" bullet goes deeper. Meaning, a .375/270 MIGHT penetrate deeper than a .366/285 depending on velocity and bullet construction. I have a hunch, but do not know, that the old vintage 9.5/270's were very thin jacketed, and if so, that might explain their supposed lack of penetration.

What are the Rosary, the Cross or the Crucifix other than tools to help maintain the fortress of our faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God?
