The Ball and Testosterone remover (The man bun gun)

[Wind Gypsy]

I’m thankful for 6.5mb, once I cut the top off it allows me to fling 300 and 350gn projectiles way down range very quietly.

OK, tell us more!

Manbun loads...120gr CX @ 2850fps. Expansion velocity of 2000fps out to 450 yards.

Thats the 8.6 Blackout right? I think that would be fun to shoot

What happened to some of those tips?

What happened to some of those tips?

Factory seconds...These are loads for a spot we hunt where shots are within 200 yards. They print about 1" at 100 yards. I think I'm going to touch them really wonky ones with a fine file to knock the edge off.

Yep 8.6blk, and it is a riot. Ringing steel at 300 yards with 300 grains is really fun.

I've had accubond tips come off while stored in a snug foam lined top ammo box transferring vibration.

My OCD self: Oh the horror.

At 35 yards, I actually can't believe that the 6.5 had enough power to kill this bruin. Shot the whole way right through that there bar....

Had she been shooting a 30-06 I am sure that the bear would have died at least 1 second quicker.

Nah. Impossible.

Nah. Impossible.

Imagine what that 77 grain TMK would do with another 300fps behind it if it does that at 2800fps

Couple 6.5 handloads I'm playing with.

Why would you need more damage/kill power beyond what the magnificently wonderfully highly efficient 6.5 did?
Asking for a friend.

That’s from a 223 shooting 77 grain TMK

Faster than a 223? So would you do 22-250 or 22 Creedmoor?

 

[BackofBeyond]

Imagine what that 77 grain TMK would do with another 300fps behind it if it does that at 2800fps

Or another 600fps in a .22 Creed

TMKs are da bomb.

I've killed 3 whitetails now with 130 gr at 2830 MV and 2 with 69 gr at 2780 MV. All fairly moderate ranges. All were trashed inside.

Only thing about the 69 gr. is that they certainly aren't always going to exit. The other side of that is that if the bullet is under the spine and in the front half, they are dead, quick.

Moral of the story, don't buy 1-9 twist .223s.

My 17” 22-250 shoots then 3100. I think id go bigger if shooting the 22 creedmoor. Like the 88 grain eldm to take advantage of the bigger powder capacity. But I’m sure the 77 TMK would be fine too

Not me I’d have that barrel cut off so short I’d be shocked on 600
