I used to use the old solid base in 180 gr form in my .300 Win for hogs, and it always worked well - even on big, tough old boars.
I have shot tons of hogs with that bullet in a 30/06 and it sure did the job. Calif ranchers consider hogs a pest and a nuisance so to keep on good terms with them I shoot lots of hogs and the Nosler solid base was perfect for that purpose. Accurate, dependable and reasonably priced. I have not shot any Btips recently but they were supposed to have the same jacket. They were too soft and expansion was rather violent for my liking.
