This year the old Colonel took his bull with the 180 RNs. Worked fine.

I used the point 200 grain factory stuff in my 35 Whelen and they never made it through normal sized whitetail does or a good 8 point the first year I used that rifle. Just found shrapnel on the ribs. Maybe a bad batch but that’s what pushed me to better bullets in the Whelen.

Ordinarily though, their bullets are usually pretty serviceable.

Great post and pic Scotty. As for Remington corelocts that I've used, when I was young I burned up a lot of 220 grain 30-06 ammo. That stuff worked very well, but deer and jack rabbits and lizards are the only thing I used them on in the desert. My grandpa gave me a big ammo box full of them. Probably 50 boxes of ammo in there, so I had to shoot them up...
