Reeder Custom Guns - Nancy's 257 Raptor vs AZ Javalina

Nancy drew a Z22 Javalina HAM hunt tag, handgun/archery/muzzleloader. The third morning we got on a bunch across a canyon and she decided to get comfortable and try,the rangefinder showed 260 yards. She settled in and at the first shot you see the 85gr Nosler BT did it's job. I asked later how much holdover she had used but she held dead on. The 257 Raptor just flat works! Thanks Gary!

At the Celebrity Handgun Hunt several years ago I took my 257 Raptor with me and that year we were allowed to shoot a whitetail buck and 4 does. I used my 257 Raptor and took all 5 and 2 were at ranges well over 200 yards. All were 1 shot kills. A couple of the other Misfits that were there also used the 257 and 240 Raptors and took their deer also at ranges exceeding 200 yards. The Raptors are extremely efficient calibers and do very well on critters up to deer size. I think Bill Firman, Scotty Boggs, Sean Harper and a couple of others used the Raptors on that hunt.
