The 286gr PPU projectiles are soft enough to expand on deer at x57 levels yet hold together in tougher assignments. Bullets in this diameter tend to be readily available. Not many in NA use this diameter yet most of the major manufacturers are producing components and I've seen they're the ones in stock. Go figure

Smart man recognizing the bullet construction dilemma...

As well as availability...

Had lots of poor performance with 270 grain bullets with the .375 Raptor. Zero expansion.

...and the Sierra 2900s (200s) were more of a .375 SOCOM bullet They work in the Raptor but not ideal... also kinda scarce to find reliability.

I am hopeful of the Lapua G574s in .366 (have 1k on hand to play with)

and the Norma 232s (have 1k on hand to play with)

If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.
