I'll bite, logcutter.

I respect JB's opinions, and I respect the factual data he relies on in his reports. I doubt he is trying to sell anything to anyone.

2nd, I didn't and still don't entirely subscribe to the "premium" bullet concept, premium meaning hard and expensive. I want bullets that kill, not make holes.

3rd, I wanted to make my 30-06 an accepted elk killer at 600 yds, acceptable being 1500ft/lbs of energy minimum. 600 yd shots happen where I hunt, and I discovered that high-BC projectiles not only retain their energy better, but buck the wind better.

They shoot more accurately in my gun than any other hunting bullet I've worked up loads for, also making a 600yd shot attempt ethical, and they cost 40-50 cents apiece. What's not to like? For me it is a win win win win. Common sense stuff.
