    Default wow!

    I just got done shooting my 6.5 swede and I thought, why not see how far this thing penetrates? so I set up a frozen wood block and BOOM! went through it, of a 15 inch block of frozen wood! 12.5gn of 2400 with 140gn cast was my load. Next time I will put up two blocks of wood!
