Default RE: got my 308win savage sighted in.( ballistic tips)

barnesX.308...

they are federal premium's. as for neck shots, if i am in the swamps and the only shot i gcan get is a neck shot i will take it. only draw back is ruining the roast. but then again you hardly get a roast if you mount the deer.
i shot my first doe with a rifle in this same gun and caliber. it was a neck shot at 75yds with win BT's. but after what my buddy went through i stopped using the win BT's. seems the federal's penetrate alittle better.
knowing my luck i the day i take this rifle out i will see the bear since i have my tag. i take it the BT's would not work on bear?
