I gave it a whirl in my ruger American. Got some 145 hotcors humping pretty good. 51gr gave me 2920fps with a low es. Pretty good accuracy too. Was starting to flatten primers but not too bad. This was in some resized 308 brass.
I had a great year, hunting wise and general life both were great. Got some much needed time off work, got to hang out with my 2 boys and completed some projects around the house. Shot my personal best archery mule deer, killed a spike bull moose and shot a below average whitetail but was still...
