I did some internet searches, & found several sources that said it wasn't worth it. I adopted that viewpoint, & went with the standard factory-loaded 165 Interbonds in .30-'06 for my elk hunt last month.At 70-ish yards, I got a complete pass-through on a lung shot, and a nearly intact slug in the far side of the skull on my follow-up shot. (No, that's NOT where I was aiming, but it sure did put him down quickly!).

I suppose that whenever you decide "enough's enough" for you, then you can put such choices behind you, & just work on trying to put the bullets where they're supposed to go. After seeing where my 2nd shot went, I suppose I'm heading back to the range!
