Re: NM Pronghorn
I only wish... here in NM you can only afford one a millenium at the current going prices. Unless you want to draw, (I've drawn twice in almost twenty years...) I got really lucky with this tag. Need to get to know a different state...

Good lookin' Speed Goat. Tasty goodness on the hoof.
I am running the 95 vldh's and looking forward to testing them on whitetail. Were you pleased with their performance on the goat?

Re: NM Pronghorn
Nice! I have been running 41.5 of IMR 4350 on the 95's and getting about 2980-3010 @ 10' from the muzzle. What is your MV with the 105?

Yep. Think that was my thread. The remnants looked like soup. Totally devastating. My 6x47 is pushing them at 2980 fps pushed by 39gr of H4350 in a 23" barrel
