I used the 100gr Pro-Hunter in my 243 Win back in the 80's. Yes, they were very accurate at my ranges, but too many of them came apart on WI whitetails. No science, no parallax issues, just observation. They came apart on little deer, they came apart on big deer, I have a collection of separated bullets. I'm a hunter, and only care about hunting. I switched to Barnes and have never looked back. When you look at the overall expense of a hunting trip, bullets/ammo are the cheapest component. My bullet choice for hunting wouldn't be anything Sierra, but that's only my decision for me.


It isn't what happens to you that defines you, it's what you DO about what happens to you that defines you!
