Somehow, years ago I came into a box of 165gr flatnose lead .308 bullets with gas checks that say they are "hard cast" with a rating of "18-20 bhn".
I know I've read somewhere that SOFT lead bullets are best for hunting, but I have no experience with these or any other pure lead bullet.
Would these bullets be good for deer at reasonable distances (under 200 yards) and approximately 30-30 velocities in my .303 Savage Model 1899?
