Just finished loading the new 225's. Looks funny when projectile is longer than the case. | |||

Will be very interested in the effectiveness you see on piggies. My 16" 300 BLK on a Black Rain Ordnance upper/lower pair took a doe this year at 60 yards. Was 220 gr SMKs at 1025 fps suppressed with an SAS Ti Arbiter 30 cal can. Was a drop on shot hit in the neck. Projectile exited the offside moving sideways. Very interested in how it might work on piggies. Mike -------------- DRSS, Womper's Club, NRA Life Member/Charter Member NRA Golden Eagles ... Knifemaker, http://www.mstarling.com | |||

Nice-looking rifle. I don't know anything about this round so I looked it up in "Cartridges of the World" and the only thing I could find was the 225 Winchester but that's a 3000+ fps small bullet - it doesn't look like yors. Can you please help with this? Are you shooting a .225 bullet at a very slow velocity? Sorry for my ignorance. Oxon | |||

Its a .308 225 grain projectile. I have killed a few smaller pigs with it. Very quiet, I had a double with it last year before I had it all gussied up. Look under 300/221 , 300 Whisper, or 300 BLK all about the same. | |||

Thank you! I was sadly confused! Was it difficult to get the moderator permit? Oxon | |||

Not really a permit, just have to pay a tax. | |||

That is a really sharp looking rifle! Airgun quiet? Sounds like lots of fun! "Let me start off with two words: Made in America" | |||
