    The same charge was doing 1600 in the 30-30. Don't have a suppressor yet(no money) so just loaded up some standard cast to see how it likes it.
    Nothing is tough about having a 70 lb bow and looking like an uncoordinated praying mantis while trying to draw it back.

    It was a team effort. Yeah happy that the cast is working in it, was thinking to get a 223 one day but @60c a round just keep shooting cast.
    Thanks to a generous forum member I have another 2 mags for it now. Will make a big difference on bigger mobs.
