My brother in law tried the Frontier brand 70 or 75 grain i forget.
The bullets are to hard it seems they just pass thru.
He uses a thermal and went back to the 6.5 Grendel and 100 grain controlled chaos bullets.
Those Frontier bullets would not plant a coyote at a 100 yards.
It gets costly when you have to shoot 3 or more times.
But as for the caliber/brand rifle i am glad we have the choices we do. Interesting, I have some of the 556 75 gr bthp Frontiers. Think they'd open up on antelope and deer? That should be a Hornady 75 bthp. I have not bought new in years since I had 10K on hand when I quit shooting competition. Lets just say we keep mags full of a load with the 75bthp for general all around use and I've never had a problem with it from coyotes and coons to deer and pigs. Can't think I've used it much past 300 or so yards though, longer 223 shots on deer I single load the old 75 amax. Appreciate the feedback. If I am remembering correctly it's a slightly different 75 made a bit shorter but generally the same thing. But I may be thinking of something else. The same btsp used in the TAP line. I will try to follow-up...
