[QUOTE="TNlandowner, post: 5262352, member: 3026"] Great shooting! I loaded Sierra 65 grain SBT's with Benchmark powder to reach a velocity of 2850 fps. My 1/8" twist AR fired a 3-round test group with all three rounds touching at 100 yards. I used this load to shoot two does that were within 100 yards. I lost both deer who ran away leaving no blood trail. I found them several days later with buzzards circling over them. I may could have shot them somewhere other than the ribs / lungs area for better results. For me, this load is now limited to coyotes and other predators.[ATTACH type="full"]123689[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
