the most accurate cartridges I have ever developed. A good friend Mark Middleton, here in Flag, who was not a handgunner before I conned him into trying it, is consistently shooting half inch groups at 100 with his 257 Raptor on a G-2. When I developed the first 2 Raptor cartridges, the 240 and 257 I took 3 barrels of each one and a lot of ammo to the Celebrity Handgun Hunt in Texas and handed them out to several friends there. Our game that year was whitetail. We were allowed 1 buck and 4 does. By the way, all the meat taken in the Celebrity Handgun Hunt was donated to charity for Christmas. But of the guys that used the 2 Raptors we had several deer taken at well over 200 yards and even at that range were instant dead drop kills. The Raptors perform way beyond what one would think by looking at them. It is a 204 Ruger case necked to .243, .257 and 6.5. Like I mentioned earlier I saw Blake drop a cow elk at about 150 yards with his 257 Raptor, one shot. The Raptors are the most accurate cartridges I have ever developed, bar none.
