    162gr eldx, in 7mm mag., Dropped an auddad at 265yds. Didn't really look at the internal damage, but the animal didn't make it far. Probably not as lethal as a true hunting round (whatever that means), but the price is pretty good and the seem the shoot well. Can't complain with a dead animal.

    Sheep was killed in leakey TX. They escaped from an exotic ranch in the 60s or 70s (along with a bunch of axis deer) and the terrain is such, that they thrive and are almost pests. Beautiful thing is that there is no closed season on non native species. The one pictured above is a medium sized female. Males get to be huge.
