I find this thread somewhat interesting and it kind of got me to thinking.
I don't mind useing bullets of about any sort but this tends to be some of the criteria I go by.
If I know my shots are going to be under 250 yds I don't mind the Barnes.
If my shots are between up really close out to 500 yds I prefer a partition.
If I figure my average shooting will be 300 to 600 I like the accubond or Ballistic Tip.
If I figure I'm shooting at 500- 1000 then its a thin jacket High BC of whatever shoots the best.
One thing I refuse to do however is use a thin jacket bullet up close.
I realize many long range guys use some regular lower BC bullets sometimes.
My question is....at what ranges do you draw your line?
Shod
Typically PBR
Jordan I promise you that Partitions kill further than that.....you can actually hit animals with them,too.
LOL. I know, Bob! There's absolutely nothing wrong with the PT, and if a guy practices with them enough to hit his POA, they kill way out there. I've seen it myself. I was just giving my rule of thumb for using a relatively lower-BC TTSX. I typically carry with a mag full of TTSX, and load a couple of rounds of AM/VLD/MK in the mag once the shot is getting beyond PBR. That's just me.
