The 3 guys whom I shared a Newfoundland moose camp last fall were using these in 2 300 Win Mags and a 300 Weatherby. All killed their bulls at around 200 yards with broadside lung shots. Two of them took 2 shots, last guy a single. The second shot wasn't necessary for either of the first 2 guys, as determined at the autopsy. None of the bulls went more than a few feet. All bullets were recovered at the hide on the off side, picture perfect expansion. No complaints by anybody, especially the guides.
Believe the nickel plating keeps the ammo a little cleaner and does not tarnish. Mostly marketing foo-foo to help justify the price. Ain't they pretty!
