nephew uses one, some load of 125 ballistic tips. His family thinks unless you are blowing primers you have weak loads... what can I say.
I have used his on a few deer, a couple of pigs, one coyote that was on out there....
We used the Sierra single shot pistol bullet years ago in the 30-30 and it would not expand in a contender, so for this use the softer ballistic tips seem to work just about right.
