Here's what a used 270 Hot Core, started out at 2600, looks like:

after hitting this, at around 40 yd.

One shot, through both lungs and smashed the off shoulder joint. Woods bison, moose, caribou, and both bears are all fair game with the Speer.

Good friend of mine whacked a huge bull moose with one at about 125 yd, straight on, bullet went through about 18" of neck muscle, proceeded to chop up three vertebrae, and lodged inside a fourth. It works just fine. smile

I have also shot quite a few tons, literally, of our big game with the 286 gr Norma Dual Core over the past 25 years.
