Jeffbird - I wonder if he was using the Varmint Ballistic Tips rather than the much stronger hunting Ballistic Tips?

Just because this past season I used the 115 gr Nosler Ballistic Tip with excellent results from my .25-06 on mule deer & pronghorn.

Complete penetration. Smallish entry wound. Bigger exit wound. Instant drop on both the deer & antelope. Bang - flop - exit wound.

Couldn't have asked for better performance, and accurate as all get out too.
