Don't like them in a cabbage.
Won't eat them with a goat, don't like them in a boat.

I don't hate them. They have always worked fine for me, but then again I usually blame myself if something doesn't work according to plans. Lots of things can go wrong when hunting. A better bullet won't cure many of them.

Be careful Scott, somebody gave me hell for using Barnes today, instead of relying on experience. Seriously, you can't make this schitt up!

Seriously, bullets the CHEAP compared to everything else. You'd think people aren't bright enough to figure out one to punch paper and one to punch tags.
There are a BUNCH of things that 'worked' in my youth, that don't mean there ain't something better.
Seen more than a few Yankees arrive in SE Alaska spouting shiet about what worked back home on all sorts of fronts.

Won't eat them with a goat, don't like them in a boat. Eat them here and eat them there, you will eat them everywhere! You will eat them from the box, You will eat them with a fox. You will them eat in the rain, Don't make me tell you this again! They are delicious; I do not lie, Now will you, will you, will you try?

I still need a 270-08...or maybe a lightweight 6.8 SPC.

I've shot many corelokts over the years and they have always seemed to do a good job for me. I've never taken one elk or bear hunting, but I have killed a bunch of deer with them and plan on killing some more. I try to match my rifle and ammunition to the game and conditions I'll be hunting and the corelokt bullet fits many of my hunting situations just fine.

Of course, Boddington should have come to the Campfire first before he wrote this article so he could have been more informed...

He should have also been around on a bear charge and have one stop on the shoulder.
Maybe safariman can throw up the pic of him with Boddington to further cement this thread.

Here we go, this will certainly help cement Boddington's judgement.

Maybe you can borrow some real bullets. You know, like borrowing a REAL rifle for an Alaskan hunt.
Of course you know SE Alaska and MT are the same. Generally you shoot cartridges the sling bullets the speed of snails. You are a product of provincialism.
