Title: 300 Rem Ultra Mag & Barnes TTSX vs 3/8 AR500
Post by: Pit808 on March 22, 2015, 10:44:00 AM
I knew 300 RUM and Barnes bullets were a beast, but DAMN!!  :worship:

100 yards btw.  Obviously not far enough for the plate.  For comparison, the small pits are from 147gr FMJ 308.

Thanks mac I am glad you keep me straight. My brain is numb from work this weekend.

To the OP maybe time to go with 1/2" or grater thickness.
