Finally got on a field today that I have been scouting for a few weeks. The pups started showing up last week and today I put the 6mm AI in play along with the 6 BR.

6 BR is an 8 TW with 105 gr Berger Hunting VLD and the 6mm AI is a 14 TW with 75 gr V-Max.

I had one hit that made its way back down the hole as I believe I hit it low with the Berger at 465 yrds.

The 6AI at around 250 yrds didn't have any trouble SNERTING a few. Shots taken with fireforming brass.

Good shooting Greg.

First cutting here should have started about a week ago, but now I don't see it happening for at least a couple weeks..... too wet and tooo cold. I am anxiously awaiting it for several reasons. :) WD
 
ya the official first cuts in my county should start next week.

Just rechecked your thread, you're running a 75gr Vmax in that 6ai!!?? Just out of curiosity, what kind of muzzle velocity are you seeing, or have you ran a fireformed round across the chrony yet? Holy geez I bet that will make for some hamburger for the vultures. :D:D:D And what a WWHHHOOOMPH when it hits. WD
 
I am chrono testing as we speak. Getting about 3858-3870 with a little left in the pot but I don't dare push it any harder.

You can clearly hear the thud when you hit a chuck...even at 400 yards if it's a body hit
 
Nice shooting! I've been out twice so far but no shots yet as the grass is very long. Been way to cold for my liking also. Hope it warms up soon!
 
NICE!! Wish they some of them down here in the south. Whistle pigs here snort....when you can find one.

Good shooting. Head shots make for good eaters too... o_O

I've been to OH, IN, Il, MS, KA, CO, OK, AR, TN, SC, NC, and soon thru VA, MD, PA to home...and I wish I could say I was campaigning (SNERT for President) but I was only touring, with one awesome day of erradicating OK PDs' . Looking forward to just being home....

BTW, that one photo subject certainly had no thoughts about his future in eternity....

when will you be in PA Snert?
 
Greg,

Passed thru in whirlwind to get home...TN to NY in 12 hours. Home now, sorting out the camper and getting re-acquanted with my bride who manned the fort while I travelled for a month.

I will post photos of my 1st PD hunt and get a total on the hit/miss ratio (gasp) with a confirmed 234 or more DRT. I can see how it can be addicting.

Oh, and the i-81 corridor had chucks all along it, mostly south of 80. grass is up here...surprised me it grew that much
