I found some 180gr RN Corelokts on the classifieds and jumped on them like a duck on a Junebug!
A few years back in Handloader magazine, a guy by the name Gary Sciuccetti (spelling?) did one of the most comprehensive bullet expansion tests I have ever seen. Very thorough, expensive, time consuming etc....anyway, there was a 2 page foldout with photos and the 2 best looking mushrooms of the whole test was the then terribly expensive .308, 180 gr Bear Claw and the lowly Rem Core Lokt 180 gr .308 round nose. Other people must have seen it too, because you seldom, if ever see 180 RCL RN's at gun shows.


Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.
