I have some boxes of ballistic tips but I have no knowledge of the manufacture date. I won't use them on game animals. But then bullets on my shelf are old.

I just loaded 100 partitions. The old were made by screw machine. The new ones had a label $14.07 on the box. Retail price at the time. Thus my hesitation on using my ballistic tips.

If you know these ballistic tips of yours are not the original design, they should be very good hunting bullets.

I'd rather the bullet over penetrate than not be able to enter the vitals.

Serious hunting for me demands bullets that penetrate to vitals.


I prefer classic.
