Thread: .260 120 NBT and 123SSt

Any pet loads loads these are 2 pills my local has in abundance. I have my serious hunting load sorted with back up supplies but were going to have a Sunday on rabbits ferals and fallow powders on hand are rl26 and superperformance and 2206h . Can check the local if theirs any others recommended. May be a silly question but are these lighter pills less jump sensitive because with the throat on my rifle my 142s/143s are jumping 50thou at mag length so I imagen these smaller guys will have alot of jump to have anything in the neck i dug deep last night and think @ryansonghurst had the 123sst going very well I was actually hoping for some really light vmaxs for these pesties but availability is king these days. Il be giving it a go regardless but time saved with advice is invaluable.

Cheers

120s BTS not sensitive to jump in my sako or Blaser. I use RL19 behind them. The are a good fallow pill. Penetrate well and open up.
This was a two for one shot in some fog and mist at about 60 meters with the little 120 bts from a Swede.

Brilliant thankyou @Dicko

Yip good pill the 120 BT. Mate runs them in front of 2208

The sst with 2209 at about 44 gr try somewhere around that.

Interesting, ive had the same once with a 140 NBT from a 7mm08. Got a chamois and kid with one bullet at 200m. Was surprised to find a seconddead animal when i got over there. Never saw the small one. I wonder if they instinctively stand behind with their hilar zones lined up to the predator.
