Default RE: ballistic tips

Great Thread!

I have in the past used and swear by Remington Core Lokt in my 30-06 Remington 760.

They flat out work at medium range, bang and the deer goes down!

My hunting buddies all use Winchester ballistic tips.
And of course they swear by them.

I have personally seen what one of the previous posters reports as an entry wound the size of your finger and an exit wound easily the size of your fist.

I have been leery of switching to them though as I have never had a problem with the core lokts.

However, with the purchase of a Browning BAR I have switched to the Winchester BTs.

After sighting the gun in with the Winchesters I can say that they are extremely accurate and repeatable in the BAR.

I hope like heck I have the same luck with the 168 Grain Winchester BTs that I had with the 180 Grain Remington Core Lokts (I know some of you will say it is too much bullet, but like I said bang and their down).

Let's hope for the best.

John
