The meat processor we use in Montana is good about keeping bullets. When my wife opened an elk roast from last year, this is the Barnes 180 grain bullet from my .300WM, that went 440 yards to harvest my elk.
Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.
Nice shot. Good thing she didn't break a tooth. What gun was that shot out of? I've been thinking about a Tikka in 300 WM.

Not to derail but I recently bought a T3X in 300 WM and it is an absolute laser with 180gr and up loads. The small measuring ticks on my Leatherman would give me a betting chance that is a .5-.75 MOA set up. I didn't have it long enough where I felt comfortable hunting with it this year but it will be my go-to next year.
We visited Jim Brockman on Tuesday, and thought you might enjoy some in process pictures. First, this is a Pre-64 .375 H&H Alaska walking around rifle. It has an 18 inch barrel, open sights and will get a LPV or Aimpoint.
Next is a Pre 64 .270 Weatherby, that has taken a bunch of elk over the years. Lilja barrel, Brown Precision stock, but too heavy for my likes in the mountains. Jim fluted the barrel and blind bottomed the stock.
Finally, Jim did the same treatment to my wife’s Dakota based .300 WM, that has taken countless moose, elk, mule deer and caribou.

I feel like I'm getting a glimpse into Santa's workshop with those pics..
I was into 10mm Auto before it sold out and went mainstream, but these days I'm here for the revolver and epidemiology information.
Thanks, I am now totally Jonseing for the .375 H&H....
Just a Hairy Special Snowflake supply clerk with no field experience, shooting an Asymetric carbine as a Try Hard. Snarky and easily butt hurt. Favorite animal is the Cape Buffalo....likely indicative of a personality disorder.

While I was shooting a match yesterday, my wife was out playing in the desert.
We went down to fly this morning, ahead of strong winds forecast for later today. Not too far west of here, there is a helicopter training area out in the desert. With winds forecast greater than 50, they move their aircraft out of the desert. Our airport was stacked with Blackhawks, a few Chinooks, and a bunch of Apaches. Returning from flying, I got to sequence with four more Apache helicopters coming in.
Later, I hit the range. While shooting, a friend from the LGS showed up with a Desert Eagle in .50 AE, that was having function issues. They just shot it in the berm, and when done, asked me whether I would like to shoot the last four cartridges. Of course I would! I decided to shoot three in the body at 25 yards, and that feeling ok, the last cartridge to the head from there. I was surprised by how well the thing shot, accuracy wise, and of course I needed a picture to record it.
