Great post! Thanks for the info on the VLD, I would have assumed that the thinner jackets would have deformed/mushroomed more. As always, shot placement and penetration seems to win the day!
Just curious, why did you settle on a supersonic load with that bullet weight? I'm not suggesting you go and mess with success mind you, it just strikes me as interesting that you didn't keep it subsonic.
This load was the minimum I could get reliable cycling with both subs and supers, as I don’t have an adjustable gas block....yet.
