Honestly cannot ever say I was unhappy with a bullet. Perhaps I haven't hunted enough.
To date I've shot moose and deer with, that I remember: Only two things stand out on this list. The 120 gr Ballistic Tip coming apart very badly after going through a doe's shoulder, but it did so in the chest and that big deer was dead very fast...and a 180 gr Accubond from the 300 WM not opening much at all in a small whitetail my best friend shot at very close range.
The 30-06 SST loads were quite mild, as i had intended to shoot them in an M1 Garand and when hunting day arrived, couldn't find my bolt action loads. Go figure. They performed admirably on a cow and bull moose. I don't know how they do going fast. Never neede them to.
