I loaded them up for my Remington 700 ADL in .270 several years ago. I thought they would be good pills for killing west Texas muleys. WRONG! I shot a big buck with them not once, not twice, but 4 times before he finally dropped. The first shot should have killed him, but the bullet blew up. The 3rd shot finally penetrated enough to get the lungs and the fourth one blew up as well.

I haven't shot hollow points at big game animals ever since then.

The lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part!
