    300PRC'd this guy last year with a 212gr Eldx at 350m. Does the job. Dropped back to 180gr for a bit more speed lately. That rifle is a truck gun tho... too jolly heavy.

    Taxidermy in progress, he was quite the beast. A real battler, his whole face on this side was swollen badly around his eye and both ears had bad tears in them.

    212gr Eldx opened up well, pulping his engine room and creating a reasonable exit wound without being too gory.
