My 1st kill with my Savage, 330+/- yd 67 grain H4198 300 gr Hornady FTX SST ML, CCI 209M. Double lung complete pass through maybe went 30 yards. Lung where jello and smashed 1 rib on entrance and 2 on exit. Been very impressed with this combo in mine. However I just got a shipment of N120, some barnes original 300 and also some of the new Parker 300gr Match/Hunters to play with. Attachments:

Thats a great start,he looks WIDE...... What holdover did you have at 330yds...? Was that a 300ftx or 325ftx I did not think they made a 300..  ?? I don't have a place to shoot 300yds ,but one day I might have that shot at a deer. Congratulations thats a nice one....... Greenhorn |

Congrats on the Long shot & wide racked buck!  330 is a chuck, did you obviously practice a lot at 300 plus? 20" or better holdover for 300 yds? Mark |

I have been working and practicing so I gain confidence to 400 for a hunt I am going on in Jan, hold over was 10inch +/- over top of back as I had a +/- 24 inch drop figured as you can see by the entry in the picture my calculation was spot on as I could not have hit him better at 30 yards, my only slight miscalc. was I had a slight crosswind which I allowed for and it did not effect it at all which is why I figure I hit him just a little to for back. But I did not hit any gut, just double lung. Forgot to add Sightron SII 3X9X42 with the HHR reticle was the optics and MMP sabot.

cenill,
I have shot a lot of N120 and the BO combo. You can expect a drop of 18 inches @ 300yds with this combo sighted in 3.5 high @ 100yds. Though I never shot the 300 grn SST with the N120 you might want to give it a whirl @ 300 yds.
