That 300 Hornady was designed for the magnum 45 cals, was it not? A lighter bullet option for thin-skinned game? Edited to add: I think I'm thinking of the 350...


Yes you are. The 300gn was a flat tipped hollow point. Although not designed for the magnum cases or velocities, it is still a felatively large chunk of bullet to absorb.

When truth is ignored, it does not change an untruth from remaining a lie.
