BC30

Those old Dominion bullets were the KlingKore Expanding (KKSP).I still have some in 7mm. Way ahead of their time and along with the plastic tipped Sabre Tips, they had a great mechanical lock behind the cannelure made by pressing fingers of jacket material into the core. Much more positive than the Hornady interlock ring and 40 year ahead of it. A shame we never kept the company going.

As for the 6.5 on grizz, I have a 6.5 Rem Mag and with 140 partitions it has a very reliable bullet action. The regular 160 grainers that people talk about can core fail which reduces their mythical penetrating prowess. Some old 160 grain KKSP's would be just the ticket however, if any more exist on the planet.
