257wby Bullets?
Bobby I shot that giant mule deer with a 115gr Nosler Partition Hand load out of my 25-06.
I hit him in the base of the neck at over 300 yards. Folded him up.
His neck, in that area, was as big or bigger than a 5 gallon buck and it was a complete pass through.
Made a believer out of me.Last edited by PondPopper; 02-07-2018, 08:23 PM.

So what I’m getting here is anything out of a 257wby will drop em haha
Hell I hit one of those 230lb Mexico buck with a 140gr twice, out of my 7mm08, and no exit.
Both shots where 2" apart and he still acted like he wasnt even hit for a few seconds after the 2nd hit him..Last edited by PondPopper; 02-07-2018, 08:40 PM.

I find it comical when folks say “I shot him in the neck (or head) and he dropped right there”.
Well duh...........

I'll trade you that old ugly green one back for that beauty... It's has plenty of power!!!! They might not even steal the green one..
But I need to shoot a couple Nilgai first..
