Default Nosler LRAB

Didn't really get to test them out at long range but they acted very much the same as regular accubonds on a whitetail and bull moose both around 100 yards.

280 ackely improved 150 grain LRAB.

Pass through on a big bodied whitetail quartering away. Caught part of the diaphragm, liver and lungs. twoonie sized exit. Deer spun around and few time and maybe took 10 steps.

Moose was a pass through on first shot through ribs and lungs / heart. Same twoonie sized exit as the whitetail. he was still standing and walking a bit (dead on his feet but didnt want him to get out of the field he was in) and second shot hard quartering away went in by his hip and didnt come out. We will see if the butcher finds that one.

I shoot the 150's in my 280. I have shot deer with them. Nothing farther than 70yds. They group extremely well out to 600yds. That's as far as i have practiced with them.

2 whitetail bucks 100 and 230yards, both pass through lungs shots. 1 whitetail and 1 mule doe both pass through. 100yards or under. pass throughs were about 1-1/2 inch hole. These were all out of a 7mm rem mag passed between me and my partners. 168gr Lrab. If anyone knows where I can find more plz PM me
