150 7mm to 180 30's. They usually go through.

120 in the Sweede is ok, not enough use to judge yet.


Even 100's in 243 penetrate often.


Yep. Heavy for caliber cup and core bullets are moderate speeds work EXTREMELY well for almost anything. They don't ruin much meat either. [/quoteX

Have seen that performance with 150gr Interlocks out of a 270. Shot a 225# boar in TX that penetrated stern to bow. Broke left hip and exited offside between shoulder and neck. No tracking needed on that one.

Where I typically hunt, a critter running 100 yards is no big deal but. I completely understand the issues that could arise in other terrain.
