I can pick up a couple of boxes of Nosler 140gr Ballistic Tips for a good price. They are in the old red/green/black box.
They are marked "39587" and "Solid Base Boat-Tail Ballistic Tip".
Are these the early "blow up" variety or solid, reliable bullets?
Yes, those are the ones.
Two of the damndest elk races I've ever been on was the result of those Plastic Tipped Potato Chips.
In all fairness, they were very accurate, and once the bullet slowed down quite a bit they worked......ok.
