Yup you guys are right.
I am using the wrong letters. It's the flex tip 30-30 bullet that is an expanding solid. I went back and checked the box. My mistake.
The ones I have loaded are the Flex Tip Mono. made for the 30-30.
I would not agree yet that it will not be a good elk bullet, but as I said I am not done with the tests yet. I am loading it in a 300 Savage and all my shots would be at 300 and less because of where I would hunt with the old rifle, and the fact that it has only a peep sight and no scope.
If I find I do not get the depth of penetration I want from an elk round (and I may not) I would then agree with SouthTexas.
