Hello from Germany!
Meanwhile I have harvested 6 roes with my .50 Traditions Deerhunter. For all I used PRB's. The first 2 were killed with 90 grs WANO PP behind the .490 PRB and the 0,20mm lubed patch. But I got the impression that this laod was to stout, so I reduced it to 75 grs WANO PP. This charge worked well.
My expirience after my first season of ML hunting is that a PRB is a really high effective bullet. You only have to keep the distance and place the ball right. But when placing it in the boilerroom, the neck or the chest it is a deadly lead pumpkin. In my opinion more effective as this new bullets. Our forefathers knew what they used.
Many thanks to all forummembers for the support on my way to a ML hunter.
Regards
Kirrmeister
