Thread: 260 Rem, AI & Imp

The 120's do good damage, but pass through. after expanding. All my shots have been short range, so the bullet is still motoring along. Two have been the "meat saver" shot just behind the shoulder into the lung / chest cavity. usually blow bits of rib out the far side with a good 1 inch or so exit wound. Last one was a neck / shoulder junction. When I was dressing it out despite cutting at the neck / head junction it came apart where the shot went in. I was expecting more damage into the shoulder area ( jellying etc ) but it was very minimal and on a par with say a .222 on a Fallow for a similar shot.

On a big stag or if hitting more bone results could be less than spectacular i am sure. But the combination is working for me so far.
@superdiver I am running both the 140 and 120 now using Strelok pro the difference is just a couple of clicks away and a shot for verification. You could run the 120's for semi distant targets with no dramas and have the silver bullet
Their best advantage is saving case capacity and mag length loading all in one bundle.
