Re: Pdog with issues

It was an amax, that's all I ever shoot out of that rifle.

You should have seen what Scott's 162 amax's at 3175 were doing to them, talk about hang time. It was great. Should have snapped a few pics of those.

Re: Pdog with issues

It's been my experience too that the A-max's expand pretty rapidly. This is a photo of a prairie dog I hit cold bore at 362 on a very windy day. It was a new load, under rushed conditions, so I just held center dog. Not quite the shot that the OP made, but just posting it to show what an A-max can do. I haven't chronographed this load, haven't had time, but it was with a 155 grain V-max (.308 caliber) from a .300 WSM using Varget. I suspect it's between 3400-3500 fps. Anyway, made a mess of the little guy.

We seem to have a similar strain of p-dogs here in Colorado! I keep wondering... what is the natural purpose of an exploding head? Kind of like a fainting goat?

Bunnies seem to have the opposite characteristic of blowing off the other end. ~500 yds. with an 87 Vmax for both. ~300 for the p-dog. Nice shooting guys!
