Got a pile during the last factory rebate, dirt cheap.

Small groups, and generally a pass-through w/ good exit wounds.

Also have some copper 140 gr. TSX, run a hundred or so fps. faster.

No complaints.




GR

In my younger years I shot everything with 150 grain Speer Hotcors and Hornady innerlocks, good results every time started at or near 2800 fps.

I still use Hornady interlocks. They are a damn good bullet and priced right. They allow you to practice all you want, with the bullet you intend to hunt with.. Win win..
