I've shot a few hinds over the last bit with the 80gr targex. 250-420m. Would say they're not as effective as the 80 ELDM at those ranges. Continue to be impressed with the ELDM. 245422245423

257R is a very capable cartridge for NZ, but you need to be a reloader that's for sure. I shot all my best animals of a 15+ year period with mine and only sold it on as I got hooked on 6.5mm stories...

Yep, back about 1995 I built one on a medium action BSA Hunter, though it was an Ackley Improved version. Would send 100gr Hornady or Nosler BT out at just over 3300fps with 2213. I tried 115gr BTs...
