Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Speer Boattail My go to when I start loading a new Cartridge

I like the 165 gr. Speer HoC core in my .308 Win. After a long spell trying to find a load that would work in a Ruger M77 RS tanger it turned out that Speer bullet was the only one useable. Kind of a strange situation but it is what it is. Also works quite well in a Winchester M70 XTR. My .280 Rem. loves the 160 gr. older two core Speer Grand Slam and I'm lucky enough to have a lifetime supply. I also shave the newer version but haven't tried them yet. I also have the regular Hot Core 160 gr. 7MM bullet to try in a 7x57. I have used the .30 caliber Hot Core in a Ruger #1 .300 Win. Mag. with excellent results on elk. Regardless of price those bullet just plain work. What's not to like?
