About 3 years ago my brother shot a nice buck with his 270 from his tree stand. (that he also bow hunts out of) The deer stopped almost under him, when he fired... The buck fell but was thrashing around moveing off, so he shot it again... He was using 130 Corloks and the bullets blew up going in, blowing open a fair sizedhole. He has now switched to handloading 130 NP's...

A couple weeks ago his SILshot a nice buck from an elevated stand "at close range" with "his" 270, hitting a rib and the same thing happened! He ended up shooting it 3 times before it stayed down for good...

So, i believe what the origional poster wrote, the 270, 130's Corlokts many times just can't take that high of an impact velocity without coming apart... They are designed to be a longer range bullet, working best after it has slowed down a bit.

As for those posting arout how well "their" Corloks have performed, that's just not relevant to what 270 130's are doing... They are a completely different bullet, even though they havethe same name...
