Wayne: I agree with Brad; I have used the 130 Speer HotCore on deer and antelope a good deal, from the 270 Winchester and have noticed that for a cup/core bullet it does a good job. They expand nicely and penetrate pretty well,mostly exiting IME.They "behave" somewhat tougher than some other cup/cores.

My old buddy John Duarte(an early mentor, and who posts on here),told me this many years ago.

For quite some time they were the 130 gr bullet I'd reach for in a new 270, to see if the thing shot,and mostly they did fine.




The 280 Remington is overbore.

The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.
