Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Single Shots 6.5x30-30 AI Contender and a big Texas boar

458 Lott-

Yes, I remember getting those bullets from you. Seems like I have always had a 6.5 in some form or fashion to feed.

Rost-While some may have started out that way decades ago, the BTs are anything but soft and out-penetrate virtually any comparable cup-and-core bullet. I've taken lots of hogs with them, and some were quite large. This one fell to a 150 grain C-T Ballistic Silvertip (same as BT but with the coating) from a 30-30 AI.
