i was at wal-mart today and clerk was stacking shelf withnew pb platinum bullets.they were 11.67 a pack. also the hollow point ones were 11.67 a pack. thats my new bullet now for my hawkins.295 pb hollow point,around 80 grs of 2f in .50 cal.no more bore butter to mess with in buck season. all my family are using pb now.for target we are using rb.348 may be better bullet but i like the 295 in 1-48 twist.i like the hollow point because i can LOAD DOWN not up on my charges.bullet will open.no flinching/no recoil/ no noise to much/ not as much KABOOM.this makes me a much better shooter.i am OLD SCHOOL.ha
