Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Elk Hunting Which 7mm-08 Bullet for Elk?

...agreed. I hate the damn things. Nothing like a premium bullet that sheds half it's weight on impact and works like a wad cutter after that. There are MUCH better bullets out there now. It was state of the art 30 years ago, but pales in comparison to many that are out now, in my own personal experience. Federal's Trophy Bonded bullet is the best of all worlds, in my experience. It expands like a ballistic tip on impact, but creates a major mushroom and plows through with a huge wound channel. The bonding process holds it all together at extreme velocity as well. I haven't been able to destroy one on critters. Flinch
