FIREARM RIFLES LEAD TYPE Sierra Boat Tail CALIBER TYPE 8mm Magnum RATING 8 LEAD SIZE 220 POWDER TYPE Re-19 POWDER AMOUNT 75 grains PRIMER CCI 250 Magnum BRASS R-P BARREL LENGTH 24 inch F.P.S 2916 fps GROUP SIZE 1/2 inch groups at 100 yards OVERALL LENGTH 3.600" GUN DETAILS Remington 700 BDl rifle
Gun stock was a Cabelas thumbhole type stock, I used a Pentax 4-12-40 scope.
I also had a muzzel break put on the barrel, the gun shot great!
The gun didn't jump much, no mre than a 30-06 but it was really loud! Use good ear protection! I urge it!
OTHER DESCRIPTION I shot the Sierra 220 grain boattail and piled one shot on top of another. Very good elk load in my opinion, I will use it this fall. SUBMITTED ON 09 Sep 2009 SUBMITTED BY Mario Published on 10-24-2014 06:20 PM Number of Views: 6333LOAD DETAILS
