RE: Hornady ballistics surprise
I guess I would like to add my personal biases also... while agreeing with Patrick, (wolfhound) -I really do think the 240/250/260 grain bullet is the right choice for deer, even black bear, and Idaho with what ever species of Moose we have it would work well there also. Heck I would even say it would work on elk - i am talking Nosler 260 grain Partition, but I do prefer the 300 grainon that occaission - much thicker skin
As I have said before it all comes down to location - location - location & then bullet perfromance
